Mixed Methods as a Means to Overcome Methodological Limitations of Qualitative and Quantitative Research Recent meta-analyses about mixed method studies (cf. Bryman 2005) have shown that qualitative and quantitative methods are often combined in ways which lead to unrelated research results.

Throughout in this text V will be a vector space of finite dimension n over a field K and T : V → V will be a linear transformation. 1 Eigenvalues and Eigenvectors A scalar λ ∈ K is an eigenvalue of T if there is a nonzero v ∈ V such that T v = λv. In this case v is called an eigenvector of T corresponding to λ. Thus λ ∈ K is an eigenvalue of T if and only if ker(T − λI) = {0}‚ and any nonzero element of this subspace is an eigenvector of T corresponding to λ. Here I denotes the identity mapping

audio-lingual method‚ Army Method‚ or New Key‚[1] is a style of teaching used in teaching foreign languages. It is based on behaviorist theory‚ which professes that certain traits of living things‚ and in this case humans‚ could be trained through a system of reinforcement—correct use of a trait would receive positive feedback while incorrect use of that trait would receive negative feedback. This approach to language learning was similar to another‚ earlier method called the direct method. Like the
