an investigation of the impact of self monitoring on langauge teachers motivational practice and its effect on learners motivation

the central purpose of this study was to conduct a case study about the role of self monitoring in teacher’s use of motivational strategies. furthermore it focused on how these strategies affected students’ motivational behavior. although many studies have been done to investigate teachers’ motivational strategies use (cheng & d?rnyei, 2007; d?rnyei & csizer, 1998; green, 2001, guilloteaux & d?...

Topologically left invariant means on semigroup algebras

Let M(S) be the Banach algebra of all bounded regular Borel measures on a locally compact Hausdorff semitopological semigroup S with variation norm and convolution as multiplication. We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for M(S)∗ to have a topologically left invariant mean.

The Cuntz semigroup as an invariant for C*-algebras

A category is described to which the Cuntz semigroup belongs and as a functor into which it preserves inductive limits. 1. Recently, Toms in [26] used the refinement of the invariant K0 introduced by Cuntz almost thirty years ago in [4] to show that certain C*-algebras are not isomorphic. Anticipating the possible use of this invariant to establish isomorphism, we take the liberty of reporting ...
