Abstract: The emergence of cyberspace as a new biosphere has revealed the inefficiency of conventional governance models in facing the moral and semantic crises of this space. The present study, with the aim of formulating a model of educational governance based on the thought of the Imams of the Islamic Revolution, has used a combined method of content analysis to extract the foundations and practical analogy to design the model. The research findings show that by going beyond the duality of instrumentalism and essentialism the theory of educational contextualism should be accepted as an autonomous paradigm. Accordingly, cyberspace has a fluid nature, whose orientation is subject to the atmosphere of Wilayah Guardianship that governs it. The final achievement of this research is to present a three-level governance model fundamentals, principles, and mechanisms in which the Islamic state, by moving from the passive position of regulator is placed in the active position of contextual architect. The operational strategy of this model is to transition from the traditional paradigm of user advice” to virtue architecture in the technical layer; in such a way that, by utilizing value-sensitive design and virtue-based algorithms choosing good becomes easier for the user and choosing evil becomes costly for the user
