Background: Although information and communication technology (ICT) is discussed in different aspects of education for a long time and numerous scholarly works have been published by Iranian researchers in Persian and English, but a study that illustrates the whole status of published works is not yet conducted. There is no reliable source to display the body of knowledge produced in this field. For this reason, it is necessary to discuss identity determination through a systematic review and analysis of published works. Purpose: The present research aims in identifying, interpreting and describing the topics and approaches used by the Iranian authors to study ICT in the educational system of Iran. Method: Achieving the identity or knowledge base of this field is performed with an interpretive approach in order to perceive the status of technology application in the educational system of Iran. The research field includes all articles published in the journals of Education and ICT. In this regard, research articles in the field of ICT in the educational system in both Persian and English languages were searched in databases between 1991 and 2022. By using the systematic review method, keywords and concepts are searched in databases. After conducting the initial search and applying the inclusion criteria, 112 articles were included in the study. Finally, a detailed review and in-depth investigation is conducted by using qualitative content analysis. Findings: Based on the analysis, four dimensions of ICT in the educational system were extracted: “Leadership”, “Professional development”, “Assessment”, and “Teaching-learning process”.
