Topic development feedback

edit

The topic development submission has been reviewed according to the marking criteria. Written feedback is below, plus see the general feedback page. Please also check the page history for changes made whilst reviewing the chapter plan. Responses to this feedback can be made by starting a new section below and/or contacting the reviewer. Marks are available via UCLearn. Marks are based on the latest version before the due date.

 
  1. The title is correctly worded and formatted
  1. Excellent – Well developed 2-level heading structure. Meaningful headings clearly relate directly to the core topic.
  2. I think it might help to have a section explaining extrinsic vs. intrinsic motivation and how this related to ER
  3. Consider adopting closer alignment between the sub-title, focus questions, and top-level headings
  1. Excellent - Scenario, image, evocative description of the problem/topic, relevant psychological theory/research, and focus questions
  2. A scenario or case study is presented in a feature box at the start of this section
  3. Add an image to the scenario or case study to help attract reader interest (I've moved Figure 1 into the scenario for now, but you may want to change)
  4. A brief, evocative description of the problem/topic is provided
  5. Closer alignment between the sub-title, focus questions, and top-level headings is recommended
  6. Open-ended focus questions are usually better than closed-ended (e.g., yes/no) questions
  1. Excellent – key points are well developed for each section, with relevant citations
  2. Great that you've identified cognitive evaluation theory - that is arguably the lynchpin in determining with ER enhances intrinsic or extrinsic motivation
  1. The Reeve textbook is overused as a citation. Instead, go to original, peer-reviewed, academic sources.
  2. For sections which include sub-sections, include the key points for an overview paragraph prior to branching into the sub-headings
  3. Good balance of theory and research
  4. Conclusion (the most important section):
    1. Well developed
  1. Excellent - A relevant figure is presented, captioned, and cited
  1. Include in-text interwiki links for the first mention of key terms to relevant Wikipedia articles and/or to other relevant book chapters
  2. Promising use of example(s)/case study(ies)
  3. Promising use of quiz question(s)
  4. Also consider using one or more tables to summarise key information
  1. Very good
  2. Move non-academic / non-peer reviewed sources to External links
  3. Are there any systematic reviews about this topic?
  4. For APA referencing style, check and correct:
    1. capitalisation
    2. doi formatting - use the shortest, simplest doi that works
    3. page numbers should be separated by an en-dash (–) rather than a hyphen (-)
  1. See also
    1. Excellent
  2. External links
    1. Excellent
  1. Excellent – used effectively
  2. Excellent description about self provided
  3. Consider linking to your eportfolio page and/or any other professional online profile or resume such as LinkedIn. This is not required, but it can be useful to interlink your professional networks.
  4. Link provided to book chapter
  1. Excellent – at least three different types of contributions with direct link(s) to evidence

Some pieces for your research

edit

Hi there!

I'm currently doing a chapter on Abusive Supervision and my area is pretty similar to yours int terms of sources, and thought I might just drop off some sources to help out if you needed them :).

Deci, E. L., & Ryan, R. M. (2000). Self-determination theory and the facilitation of intrinsic motivation, social development, and well-being.

https://doi.org/10.1037//0003-066x.55.1.68

Tepper, B. J. (2007). Abusive supervision in work organizations: Review, synthesis, and research agenda. Journal of Management, 33(3), 261-289.https://psycnet.apa.org/doi/10.1177/0149206307300812

Deci, E. L., Connell, J. P., & Ryan, R. M. (1989). Self-determination in a work organization. Journal of Applied Psychology, 74(4), 580-590.

https://psycnet.apa.org/doi/10.1037/0021-9010.74.4.580

I would recommend giving these a run through SciHub as some of them are very difficult to access, if not I'd be happy to give you some PDFs with the page numbers I have included.

These sources are really good for intrinsic motivation, and I used them to show how my topic greatly effects the SDT, if you want I am happy to give a couple more sources.

Hope this helps!

Feedback for book chapter

edit

Hey,

The structure for your book chapter is coming along really well. I could easily follow your presentation of ideas and found it interesting to read!

I found a systematic review and meta-analysis from 2016 titled "The Relationship Between Organizational Culture, Intrinsic Motivation, And Employee Performance: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis". I thought this could help you to critically analyse the current field of research for this topic. I found the 'suggestions for further research' and 'summary' particularly interesting!

Hope this helps! U3216883 (discusscontribs) 02:48, 30 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Potential theory

edit

Hi @U3235875,

Your book chapter looks like it's coming along great! It looks like you already have a great range of relevant theory, but in reading your chapter I realised I have done an assessment previously on a similar topic, and found that Herzberg's Two-Factor Theory was really useful in explaining the different factors that contribute to motivation in the workplace. This is an article I found pretty useful and you can access it through the UC library, but here is a PDF https://rejournal.eu/sites/rejournal.versatech.ro/files/articole/2023-06-28/3718/4orobosa.pdf U3236338 (discusscontribs) 13:44, 2 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

Heading casing

edit
 
FYI, the recommended Wikiversity heading style uses sentence casing. For example:

Self-determination theory rather than Self-Determination Theory

Here's an example chapter with correct heading casing: Growth mindset development

    1. describing the methodology (e.g., sample, measures) in important studies
    2. considering the strength of relationships
  1. Excellent integration between theory and research
  1. Excellent summary and conclusion
  1. Written expression
    1. Overall, the quality of written expression is excellent
    2. Use 3rd person perspective (e.g., "it") rather than 1st (e.g., "we") or 2nd person (e.g., "you") perspective[1] in the main text, although 1st or 2nd person perspective can work well for case studies or feature boxes
  2. Layout
    1. Use the default heading style (e.g., remove additional italics and/or bold) (fixed)
    2. See earlier comments about heading casing
    3. Tables

Overall

edit
  1. Overall, this is a reasonably good presentation
  1. An opening slide with the title is displayed but not narrated. Also display and narrate the sub-title — this helps to clearly convey the purpose of the presentation.
  2. Engaging introduction to hook audience interest
  3. A context for the presentation is clearly established through an example
  4. Consider asking focus questions that lead to take-away messages. This will help to focus and discipline the presentation.
  1. Comments about the book chapter may also apply to this section
  2. The presentation addresses the topic
  3. An appropriate amount of content is presented — not too much or too little
  4. The presentation makes excellent use of relevant psychological theory
  5. The presentation makes basic use of relevant psychological research
  6. Ideally, make more explicit use of research
  7. The presentation makes excellent/very good/good/reasonably good/basic/insufficient/no use of citations to support claims
  8. Use APA style for citations
  9. The presentation makes good use of one or more examples
  10. The presentation provides practical advice
  11. The presentation provides easy to understand information
  1. The conclusion provides a very good summary of the most relevant psychological theory and research about this topic
  2. Add a conclusion slide with the take-home messages

  3. Audio communication is well paced
  4. Very good intonation
  5. The narration is well practiced and/or performed
  6. Audio recording/mixing volume was problematic
  7. 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.
  8. The narrated content is well matched to the target topic
  1. Overall, visual display quality is OK, but many parts are difficult to read due to distracting colours/animation

  7. The visual content is well matched to the target topic
