Initial suggestions[edit source]

@U3227759: Thanks for tackling this topic. Some initial suggestions:

Let me know if I can do anything else as you go along. Sincerely, James -- Jtneill - Talk - c 04:13, 13 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Heading casing[edit source]

Hi U3227759. 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
