Heading casing

FYI, the convention on Wikiversity is for lower-cased headings. For example, use:

==Cats and dogs==

rather than

==Cats and Dogs==

Overall

  1. Overall, this was a great effort and an important and interesting topic, well done.
  1. There was a nice effort to include theories on empathy development, and a neuropsychological approach was discussed. For improvement, consider including the discussion of specific research studies and expansion on some of the concepts covered i.e atypical development
  1. Overall, brainshark was used to good effect. The pacing was good and the slides were generally not cluttered. For improvement, the use of a case study or real life example might help to further engage the viewer.
  1. The visual quality was sound, however the sound level varied at times. Links and image refs were included, but remember to include references and licensing informationCourtney.Bruce (discusscontribs) 03:51, 23 November 2014 (UTC)Reply
