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

1. Title The title and sub-title are correctly worded and formatted 2. Headings Promising 2-level heading structure – would benefit from further development and/or refinement Some headings lack sufficient relevance to the topic; zero in news and emotion; general stuff about news or emotion as separate concepts is not relevant. Provide links out to more info about these concepts. Develop closer alignment between sub-title, focus questions, and top-level headings Cover definition(s) in the Overview and/or subsequent sections with embedded inter-wiki link(s) to further information. 3. Overview Excellent – Scenario, image, evocative description of the problem/topic, and focus questions Very good Good Basic Insufficient Does this section include genAI content? If so, it needs to be acknowledged as such in the edit summaries, otherwise it violates academic integrity. Hasn't been developed – Needs scenario, image, evocative description of the problem/topic, and focus questions Add an image to the scenario to help attract reader interest A brief, evocative description of the problem/topic is provided Only a few of the suggestion questions are relevant from a psychological science perspective; refine focus Closer alignment between the sub-title, focus questions, and top-level headings is recommended 4. Key points Promising development of key points The latter half is more relevant/appropriate than the first half Excellent use of citations Strive for an integrated balance of the best psychological theory and research about this topic, with practical examples For sections which include sub-sections, include the key points for an overview paragraph prior to branching into the sub-headings Avoid providing too much background information. Aim to briefly summarise general concepts and provide internal links to relevant book chapters and/or Wikipedia pages for further information. Then focus most of the content on directly answering the core question(s) posed by the chapter sub-title. Adopt a neutral, scientific stance; this is not an argumentative essay Conclusion is underway 5. Figure Excellent - One or more relevant figure(s) presented, captioned, and cited The figure caption(s) provide(s) a clear, appropriately detailed description that is meaningfully connected with the main text Figure(s) are cited at least once in the main text 6. Learning feature Excellent in-text interwiki links for the first mention of key terms to relevant Wikipedia articles and/or to relevant book chapters Promising use of one or more scenarios/examples/case studies Promising use of quiz question(s) Focus the quiz question(s) on the take-home messages for each focus question Also consider using one or more tables to summarise key information 7. References Basic Are there any systematic reviews about this topic? Move non-academic / non-peer reviewed sources to External links Check and correct APA referencing style: capitalisation include page numbers 8. Resources See also Excellent External links Excellent 9. User page Very good 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. A link to the book chapter is provided 10. Social contribution direct improvements to other chapters (past or current) comments on the talk pages of other chapters (past or current) posts about the unit or project on other platforms such as the UCLearn discussion forum or on X using the #emot24

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 reasonably good chapter The chapter provides a somewhat journalistic/sociological perspective and makes some claims which are not supported by peer-reviewed citations; to improve, focus on synthesising the best psychological theory and research about this topic (news and emotion) and make greater use of peer-reviewed citations to support claims being made Insufficient use of primary, peer-reviewed sources as citations (e.g., see the tags) Move embedded external links to non-peer-reviewed sources into the External links section For additional feedback, see the following comments and these copyedits Overview Well developed Engaging case study or scenario in a feature box; also include a relevant image (fixed) Explains the psychological problem or phenomenon reasonably well The focus questions are excellent (clear and relevant) Theory A very good range of relevant theories are selected, described, and explained Builds effectively on other chapters and/or Wikipedia articles Very good depth is provided about relevant theory(ies) Basic use of tables, figures, and/or lists to help clearly convey key theoretical information Key citations are well used In some/many places, there is insufficient use of academic, peer-reviewed citations (e.g., see the tags) Insufficient use of academic, peer-reviewed citations (e.g., see the tags) If you didn't consult an original source (e.g., ?), cite it as a secondary source Reasonably good use of examples to illustrate theoretical concepts Research Good review of relevant research More detail about key studies would be ideal Any systematic reviews or meta-analyses in this area? Reasonably good 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 considering the strength of relationships acknowledging limitations pointing out critiques/counterarguments suggesting specific directions for future research Many claims lack sufficient citation (e.g., see the tags) Integration Reasonably good integration between theory and research Conclusion Reasonably good summary and conclusion Makes some overly bold claims; instead, objectively summarise the best psychological science about the topic Add practical, take-home message(s) Style Written expression Overall, the quality of written expression is reasonably good The target audience is international, not domestic. Only 0.3% of the world human population lives in Australia. Avoid overly emotive language in science-based communication Grammar The grammar for some sentences could be improved (e.g., see tags) by using a grammar checking tool, accessing UC services like Studiosity, and/or seeking peer feedback on draft work Check and make correct use of commas (e.g., instead of dashes) Spelling Use Australian spelling (e.g., hypothesize vs. hypothesise; behavior vs. behaviour) Proofreading More proofreading is needed to bring the quality of written expression closer to a professional standard APA style Use serial commas[1][2] Express numbers < 10 using words (e.g., two) and >= 10 and over using numerals (e.g., 99) Figures Very well captioned Each Figure is referred to at least once within the main text using APA style Tables Add an APA style caption to each table Refer to each Table at least once within the main text (e.g., see Table 1) Citations use reasonably good APA Style (7th ed.): If there are three or more authors, cite the first author followed by et al., then year. For example, either: in-text, Smith et al. (2020), or in parentheses (Smith et al., 2020) Move embedded links to non-peer reviewed sources into the External links section; only cite peer-reviewed sources References use good APA style: Check and correct use of capitalisation[3] Move non-peer reviewed sources into the External links section Learning features Excellent use of learning features Excellent use of embedded in-text interwiki links to Wikipedia articles Excellent use of embedded in-text links to related book chapters Good use of figure(s) Reasonably good use of table(s) Basic use of feature box(es) Good use of scenarios, case studies, or examples Basic use of quiz(zes) and/or reflection question(s) The quiz questions could be improved by being more focused on the key points and/or take-home messages The quiz questions could be more effective as learning prompts by being embedded as single questions within each corresponding section rather than as a set of questions at the end Excellent use of interwiki links in the "See also" section Excellent use of external links in the "External links" section Social contribution ~4 logged, useful, mostly moderate contributions with direct links to evidence In addition, an image was uploaded to Wikimedia Commons

Multimedia presentation feedback

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.

Overall Overall, this is a basic presentation The presentation is over the maximum time limit. Content beyond 3 mins is ignored for marking and feedback purposes. Overview The opening conveys the purpose of the presentation in a basic way The presentation has a basic introduction to engage audience interest A basic context for the presentation is established Consider asking focus questions to help focus and discipline the presentation Content Comments about the book chapter may also apply to this section The presentation addresses the topic There is too much content (goes over time). Provide a higher-level presentation. It is better to cover a small amount of well-selected content well than a large amount poorly. The presentation makes reasonably good use of relevant psychological theory The presentation makes good use of relevant psychological research The presentation makes very good use of citations to support claims The presentation makes very good use of examples The presentation provides useful practical advice The presentation could be improved by providing practical advice The presentation provides easy to understand information Conclusion The Conclusion did not fit within the time limit Audio The presentation makes basic use of narrated audio Audio communication is well-paced Basic intonation The narration is reasonably well practiced and/or performed Audio recording quality was poor mainly because of poor audio editing (voice cuts in and out, with blank/pauses) The narrated content is well matched to the target topic Video Overall, visual display quality is basic The presentation makes basic use of text and image based slides The font size is mostly sufficiently large to make it easy to read Consider increasing line spacing to make the text easier to read The amount of text presented on one or more slides could be reduced to make it easier to read and listen at the same time The visual communication is supplemented in a basic way by relevant images and/or diagrams The presentation is basically produced using simple tools The visual content is reasonably well matched to the target topic Meta-data The correct title is used, but the sub-title (or a shortened version of it) is not used, as the name of the presentation. This would help to convey the purpose of the presentation and be consistent. A brief written description of the presentation is provided. Expand. An inactive hyperlink to the book chapter is provided (maybe because the YouTube user account doesn't have advanced features) A link from the book chapter is provided Licensing Image sources are communicated in a general way Provide clickable links to the image sources and license details (e.g., in the description) A copyright license for the presentation is in the description but not in the license field
