Heading casing

Hi CharlotteLane55. 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 -- Jtneill - Talk - c 04:50, 17 August 2024 (UTC)

Marks are available via UCLearn. Marks are based on the latest version before the due date.

1. Title The title is correctly worded and formatted 2. Headings Promising 2-level heading structure – could benefit from further development by expanding the structure Useful distinction between enhance/reduce Emphasises theory rather than research; aim for a balance; these headings are OK if research about these theories is covered within each section Introduction heading is probably not needed - cover this material in either the Overview or subsequent sections Headings should not also be hyperlinks Consider adopting closer alignment between the sub-title, focus questions, and top-level headings 3. Overview Very good - Scenario, image, evocative description of the problem/topic, relevant psychological theory/research, and focus questions A scenario or case study is presented in a feature box at the start of this section Aim for a brief, evocative description of the problem/topic Use 3rd person perspective (except 1st/2nd person can work for feature boxes/scenarios) Closer alignment between the sub-title, focus questions, and top-level headings is recommended 4. Key points Partial development of key points for some sections, with some relevant citations Move links to external resources into the External links section For sections which include sub-sections, include the key points for an overview paragraph prior to branching into the sub-headings Strive for an integrated balance of theory and research, with practical examples Use APA style 7th edition for citations with three or more authors (i.e., FirstAuthor et al., year) Conclusion (the most important section): Hasn't been developed 5. Figure A relevant figure is presented and captioned Cite each figure at least once in the main text Consider decreasing image size to make it less dominant in relation to the text 6. Learning feature Promising use of in-text interwiki links for the first mention of key terms to relevant Wikipedia articles and/or to other relevant book chapters Promising use of example(s)/case study(ies) The opening case study is long; consider abbreviating or splitting into different sections throughout the chapter Consider including more examples/case studies, quiz question(s), table(s) etc. 7. References Excellent For APA referencing style, check and correct: page numbers should be separated by an en-dash (–) rather than a hyphen (-) 8. Resources See also Not developed External links Not developed 02]]) 9. User page Excellent – used effectively Excellent description about self provided 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. Link provided to book chapter 10. Social contribution At least three different types of contributions with direct link(s) to evidence If adding the second or subsequent link to a page (or a talk/discussion page), create a direct link like / Add direct links to evidence. To do this: View the page history, select the version of the page before and after your contributions, click "compare selected revisions", and then use this website address as a direct link to evidence for listing on your user page. For more info, see Making and summarising social contributions.

heading style

Hi, looking great chapter! the heading style needs to be sentence casting. Like Psychological theories to enhance group motivation, not the one you did like Psychological Theories to Enhance Group Motivation. Stluciamolly (discuss • contribs) 12:50, 3 October 2024 (UTC)

Book chapter review and feedback

This chapter has been reviewed according to the marking criteria. Written feedback is provided below, plus there is a general feedback page. Please also check the chapter's page history to check for editing changes made whilst reviewing through the chapter. Chapter marks will be available via UCLearn along with social contribution marks and feedback. Keep an eye on Announcements.

Overall Overall, this is a basic, but sufficient chapter Coverage of theory is very good, but there is a lack of sufficient citation and insufficient review of relevant research Partial use of APA style for citations. Example of how to improve: Christie et al, 2001 -> Christie et al. (2001) Insufficient use of academic, peer-reviewed citations to support claims (e.g., see the tags) For additional feedback, see the following comments and these copyedits Overview Well developed Engages reader via a case study or scenario in a feature box; also include a relevant image Clearly explains the problem or phenomenon Reasonably clear focus questions Theory A very good range of relevant theories are selected, described, and explained Builds somewhat on Wikipedia articles; build more strongly on related book chapters Build more strongly on related chapters and/or Wikipedia articles (e.g., by embedding links to other chapters) Reasonably good depth is provided about relevant theory(ies) Basic use of tables, figures, and/or lists to help convey key theoretical information Insufficient use of academic, peer-reviewed citations (e.g., see the tags) Good use of examples to illustrate theoretical concepts Research Insufficient use of academic, peer-reviewed citations (e.g., see the tags) Insufficient critical thinking about relevant research is evident Critical thinking about research could be further evidenced by: describing the methodology (e.g., sample, measures) in important studies discussing the direction of relationships considering the strength of relationships acknowledging limitations pointing out critiques/counterarguments suggesting specific directions for future research Many claims are unreferenced (e.g., see the tags) Integration Insufficient integration between theory and research Conclusion Basic summary and conclusion Add practical, take-home message(s) Style Written expression Overall, the quality of written expression is basic Use active (e.g., "this chapter explores") rather than passive voice (e.g., "this chapter has explored" or "this chapter will explore") [1][2] Avoid one sentence paragraphs. Communicate one idea per paragraph using three to five sentences. Use 3rd person perspective (e.g., "it") rather than 1st (e.g., "we") or 2nd person (e.g., "you") perspective[3] in the main text, although 1st or 2nd person perspective can work well for case studies or feature boxes Avoid directional referencing (e.g., "As previously mentioned"). Instead: it is, most often, not needed at all, or use section linking Layout The chapter is well structured, with major sections using sub-sections Remove links from headings Include an introductory paragraph before branching into the sub-sections (see tags) Grammar The grammar for some sentences could be improved (e.g., see the tags) Spelling Some words are misspelt (e.g., see the tags). Spell-checking tools are available in most internet browsers and word processing software packages. Use Australian spelling (e.g., hypothesize vs. hypothesise; behavior vs. behaviour) Proofreading More proofreading is needed (e.g., fix punctuation and typographical errors) to bring the quality of written expression closer to a professional standard Remove unnecessary capitalisation (e.g., Economics -> economics) APA style Use sentence casing for the names of disorders, therapies, theories, etc. Use serial commas[4]. Video (1 min) Figures Briefly captioned; provide more detail to help connect the figure to the text Use this format for captions: Figure X. Descriptive caption in sentence casing. See example Figure would be better presented as an editable table than a fixed image Each Figure is referred to at least once within the main text References use basic APA style: Check and correct use of capitalisation[5] Include hyperlinked dois Remove publisher location Overreliance on books/encyclopedias Move non-peer reviewed links into the External links section Learning features Basic use of learning features Basic use of embedded in-text interwiki links to Wikipedia articles. Adding more interwiki links for the first mention of key words and technical concepts would make the text even more interactive. See example. Move links to non-peer-reviewed sources to the External links section Reasonably good use of image(s) Basic use of quiz(zes) and/or reflection question(s) No use of interwiki links in the "See also" section Reasonably good use of external links in the "External links" section Use alphabetical order Use the best 3 to 6 resources about this topic available on the internet Social contribution ~10 logged, useful, moderate to major social contributions Approximately half the links went to direct evidence and were counted for marking purposes

Overall Overall, this is a reasonably good presentation Overview An opening slide with the title and sub-title is displayed — this helps to clearly convey the purpose of the presentation. Also narrate. The presentation has an opening scenario to hook audience interest A context for the presentation is established through an example Consider using the focus questions as a stronger structuring device for the presentation Content Comments about the book chapter may also apply to this section The presentation addresses the topic An appropriate amount of content is presented — not too much or too little The presentation makes very good use of relevant psychological theory The presentation makes no use of relevant psychological research Ideally, make more explicit use of research The presentation makes excellent use of citations to support claims The presentation makes basic use of one or more examples The presentation provides practical advice The presentation provides easy to understand information Conclusion Provide a conclusion slide which summarises the most relevant psychological theory and research about this topic, with practical, take-home messages in response to each focus question Audio The audio is easy to follow The presentation makes reasonably good use of narrated audio Audio communication is reasonably well paced Basic intonation The narration is well practiced and/or performed Audio recording quality was reasonably good The narrated content is well matched to the target topic Video Overall, visual display quality is reasonably good The presentation makes good use of text and image based slides The font size is sufficiently large to make it easy to read The amount of text presented per slide makes it easy to read and listen at the same time The visual communication is supplemented in a good way by relevant images and/or diagrams The presentation is reasonably well produced using simple tools The visual content is well matched to the target topic Meta-data The chapter title and sub-title (or an abbreviation to fit within the 100 character limit) are used in the name of the presentation — this helps to clearly convey the purpose of the presentation An excellent written description of the presentation is provided An inactive hyperlink to the book chapter is provided (maybe because the YouTube user account does not yet have access to advanced features) A link from the book chapter is provided Licensing Image sources and their copyright status are indicated, but not in a way that allows the links to be easily accessed A copyright license for the presentation is clearly indicated
