The accompanying multimedia presentation has been marked according to the marking criteria. Marks are available via the unit's UCLearn site. Written feedback is provided below, plus see the general feedback page. Responses to this feedback can be made by starting a new section below. If you would like further clarification about the marking or feedback, contact the unit convener.
An appropriate amount of content is presented — not too much or too little
The presentation is reasonably well structured (i.e., Overview, Content, Conclusion)
The presentation makes good use of relevant psychological theory, but is overly focused on the causes of PT to the detriment of other aspects of the topic
The presentation makes some implied use of relevant psychological research; ideally make more explicit use of research
Include citations to support claims
The presentation could be improved by making more use of examples or case studies
The audio is hard to follow because so much content is presented so quickly
Consider slowing down and leaving longer pauses between sentences. This can help the viewer to cognitively digest the information that has just been presented before moving on to the next point
Consider using greater intonation to enhance listener interest and engagement
Consider improving articulation to enhance the clarity of speech
The presentation lacks the polish that comes with practice
Audio recording quality was poor. Volume varies. Background noise. Sometimes audio is cut-off at start of slides. Sometimes the audio is inaudible. Review microphone set-up to achieve higher recording quality. Probably an on-board microphone was used (e.g., keyboard and/or mouse clicks were audible). Consider using an external microphone.
Mute the music during narration to help the viewer concentrate on the combination of visual information and narrated audio

Chapter marks will be available via UCLearn along with social contribution marks and feedback. Keep an eye on Announcements.
A very good range of relevant theories are selected, described, and explained
Perhaps greater emphasis could be placed on the neuroscience of trauma
The chapter doesn't wander off into discussion of irrelevant theory
Build more strongly on other trauma-related chapters (e.g., by embedding links to other chapters in this category: Category:Motivation and emotion/Book/Trauma). Ideally, this would be a gateway chapter that has embedded links to many of these other chapters.
More emphasis on how people can recover would be helpful; what non-clinical treatment approaches are helpful? What is trauma-informed care? etc.
Overall, the quality of written expression is good
"People" is often a better term than "individuals"
Layout
Sections which branch into sub-sections should include an introductory paragraph before branching into the sub-sections (see [Provide more detail] tags)
The grammar for some sentences could be improved (e.g., see the [grammar?] tags). Grammar-checking tools are available in most internet browsers and word processing software packages. Another option is to share draft work with peers and ask for their assistance.
Spelling
Spelling can be improved (e.g., see the [spelling?] tags). Spell-checking tools are available in most internet browsers and word processing software packages.
APA style
Numbers under 10 should be written in words (e.g., five); numbers 10 and over should be written in numerals (e.g., 10)
Direct quotes need page numbers – even better, write in your own words
Overall, the use of learning features is very good
Excellent use of embedded in-text interwiki links to Wikipedia articles
No use of embedded in-text links to related book chapters. Embedding in-text links to related book chapters helps to integrate this chapter into the broader book project.
Basic/No use of image(s)
Very good use of table(s)
Basic use of feature box(es)
Basic use of quiz(zes)
No use of case studies or examples
Good use of interwiki links in the "See also" section
Use sentence casing
Also include links to related book chapters
Also include links to related Wikipedia articles
External links not counted for marking purposes (over maximum word count)
