TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the capacity of two different theoretical models of motivation to explain why an externally provided rationale often supports students' motivation, engagement, and learning during relatively uninteresting learning activities.
Abstract: The present study examined the capacity of 2 different theoretical models of motivation to explain why an externally provided rationale often supports students' motivation, engagement, and learning during relatively uninteresting learning activities. One hundred thirty-six undergraduates (108 women, 28 men) worked on an uninteresting 20-min lesson after either receiving or not receiving a rationale. Participants who received the rationale showed greater identified regulation, interest-enhancing strategies, behavioral engagement, and conceptual learning. Structural equation modeling was used to test 3 alternative explanatory models to understand why the rationale produced these benefits--an identified regulation model based on self-determination theory, an interest regulation model based on interest-enhancing strategies research, and an additive model that integrated both models. The data fit all 3 models; however, only the model that included rationale-enhanced identified regulation uniquely fostered students' engagement and hence their learning. Findings highlight the role that externally provided rationales can play in helping students generate the autonomous motivation they need to engage constructively in and learn from uninteresting, but personally important, lessons.

TL;DR: A novel nanohybrid of SnO(2) nanocrystal (NC)-decorated crumpled MoS( 2) nanosheet and its exciting air-stable property for room temperature sensing of NO(2).
Abstract: The unique properties of MoS(2) nanosheets make them a promising candidate for high-performance room temperature sensing. However, the properties of pristine MoS(2) nanosheets are strongly influenced by the significant adsorption of oxygen in an air environment, which leads to instability of the MoS(2) sensing device, and all sensing results on MoS(2) reported to date were exclusively obtained in an inert atmosphere. This significantly limits the practical sensor application of MoS(2) in an air environment. Herein, a novel nanohybrid of SnO(2) nanocrystal (NC)-decorated crumpled MoS(2) nanosheet (MoS(2)/SnO(2)) and its exciting air-stable property for room temperature sensing of NO(2) are reported. Interestingly, the SnO(2) NCs serve as strong p-type dopants for MoS(2), leading to p-type channels in the MoS(2) nanosheets. The SnO(2) NCs also significantly enhance the stability of MoS(2) nanosheets in dry air. As a result, unlike other MoS(2) sensors operated in an inert gas (e.g. N(2)), the nanohybrids exhibit high sensitivity, excellent selectivity, and repeatability to NO(2) under a practical dry air environment. This work suggests that NC decoration significantly tunes the properties of MoS(2) nanosheets for various applications.
