Comments

Hi, firstly such a good topic, looks great so far! Just a suggestion to deepen your ideas, that it might be advantageous to add a little section about hormones and or neurotransmitters. For example a couple sentences on the "feel good hormones" like oxytosin, that might make your argument even stronger and add even more research to what you already have. This might be a good inclusion in you sympotoms of flourishing. Keep it up ! --U3160678 (discuss • contribs) 05:52, 19 October 2018 (UTC)

Hi :) Just added a ')' to one of your references. And I bolded the reference for your figure 1 just to draw your attention to the fact that you may not need that bit as the image will have the reference link for you. Good luck its looking great!!! - --MaddieCarleton (discuss • contribs) 22:53, 16 October 2018 (UTC) 17/10/2018

Example boxes

Hi Gabi! Your chapter looks like its coming along great, I really look forward to seeing the finished product! I went into the source code and added a div tag with some padding to both your example boxes, this will pull the content away from the borders of the box making it easier to read. I hope this helps! --Brittany (u3117719) (discuss • contribs) 04:01, 21 October 2018 (UTC)

Overall Overall, this is an excellent presentation that makes creative and effective use of video/screencasting tools. Structure and content Many of the comments about the book chapter also apply to this section. Well selected and structured content - not too much or too little. The presentation is well structured (Title, Overview, Body, Conclusion). A Conclusion slide is presented with a take-home message(s). Communication The presentation is easy to follow and interesting to watch and listen to. The presentation makes effective use of text and image based slides with narrated audio. Well paced. Excellent pauses between sentences. This helps the viewer to cognitively digest the information that has just been presented before moving on to the next point. The font size is sufficiently large to make it easy to read in the time provided. The visual communication is effectively supplemented by images. Production quality The full chapter title and sub-title are used in the video title - this helps to clearly convey the purpose of the presentation. Use the full chapter title and sub-title on the opening slide and in the name of the video because this helps to match the book chapter and to clearly convey the purpose of the presentation. Audio and video recording quality was excellent. Images sources and their copyright is well acknowledged. A copyright license for the presentation is provided. A link to and from the book chapter is provided. A written description of the presentation is provided.

I like how this book chapter included many symptoms of flourishing and the inclusion of studies in the theories. --U3160221 (discuss • contribs) 07:33, 20 October 2019 (UTC)
