the present study sought to investigate the impact of using mind-mapping technique instruction on female elementary efl learners reading comprehension; it also investigated their attitudes towards using mind-mapping technique as a tool to improve their reading comprehension. this study followed a quasi-experimental design with two intact groups as experimental, and control groups. the participa...

nowadays, air pollution is a global problem that has had significant growth by technology development, population growth andindustrial development. industrial development brought natural resources deterioration, more manufacturing products, and more environmental pollutants. if pollutant won’t be controlled, human-being and wildlife will face the critical risks. significant release and critical...

in this thesis our aim is to construct vector field in r3 for which the corresponding one-dimensional maps have certain discontinuities. two kinds of vector fields are considered, the first the lorenz vector field, and the second originally introced here. the latter have chaotic behavior and motivate a class of one-parameter families of maps which have positive lyapunov exponents for an open in...

in chapter one we will describe definitions and preliminary results to provide the global context of our own results to be presented in detail in the subsequent chapters in chapter two we consider degree-one maps of the circle and we study their rotation set. our main result in this chapter says that if the map is topologically mixing then its rotation interval is nontrivial (that is, not reduc...

in this thesis we will present three topics. we define approximate fixed points in fuzzy normed spaces. also we obtain some necessary and sufficient conditions on the existence of? -fixed points for ? > 0. at the continue some results about approximate fixed points for a class of non-expansive maps on g-metric spaces are obtained and we define approximate fixed points in partial metric spa...

abstract the cr(iii) and zn(ii) complexes with 2-((9,10-dihydro-1-hydroxy-9,10-dioxaanthracen-4-yloxy)carbonyl)benzoic acid as ligand have been prepared by reacting cr(no3) and zn(no3)2 and ligand in cloroform. the cr and zn complexes with 2-((9,10-dihydro-1-hydroxy-9,10-dioxaanthracen-4-yloxy)carbonyl) were also prepared in chloroform and aceton solutions. the uv-visible and ft-ir spectra of...

the west of esfahan province, iran, is one of the most important agricultural areas throughout the country due to the climate variability and life-giving water of zayanderood river. rice is one of the major and economic crops in this area. the most important climatic elements in agricultural activities which should be considered include temperature, relative humidity, precipitation and wind. so...
