We investigate a Kovovkin-type approximation theorem, and obtain the rate of convergence of T n , q , α ( f ) to any continuous functions f. The main results are the identification of several shape-preserving properties of these operators, including their monotonicity- and convexity-preserving properties with respect to f ( x ) . We also obtain the monotonicity with n and q of T n , q , α ( f ) .
