This template provides tips for the topic development exercise.
Gradually remove these suggestions as the chapter develops.
Also consult the book chapter guidelines.
Overview
[edit | edit source]Imagine ... a scenario or case study which illustrates the problem and engages reader interest. Consider including an image (see Figure 1). The scenario could be presented in a feature box.
The Overview is typically 180 to 330 words.
Suggestions for this section:
|
Focus questions:
|
Main headings
[edit | edit source]- Aim for three to six main headings between the Overview and Conclusion
- Sub-headings can also be used, but avoid having sections with only one sub-heading
Key points
[edit | edit source]- Provide at least 3 bullet-points per heading, including for the Overview and Conclusion
- Include key citations
Learning features
[edit | edit source]- Interactive learning features bring online book chapters to life and can be embedded throughout the chapter.
Case studies
[edit | edit source]- Case studies describe real-world examples of concepts in action.
- Case studies can be real or fictional.
- A case study could be split into multiple sections throughout a chapter to illustrate different theories or stages.
- It is often helpful to present case studies using feature boxes.
Feature boxes
[edit | edit source]- Important content can be highlighted in a feature box. But don't overuse feature boxes, otherwise they lose their effect. There are several ways of creating boxes. Recommended: Pretty boxes).
- Consider using feature boxes for:
- Focus questions
- Case studies or examples
- Quiz questions
- Take-home messages
A very simple box can be created by using a space at the start of the line
|
Figures
[edit | edit source]- Use figures to illustrate concepts, add interest, and to serve as examples
- Figures can show photos, diagrams, graphs, etcetera
- Figures can be embedded throughout the chapter, including the Overview section
- Figures should be captioned (using Figure #. and a description). Captions explain the relevance of the image to the text/
- Wikimedia Commons provides a library of embeddable images
- Images can also be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons if they are openly licensed
- Refer to each figure at least once in the main text (e.g., see Figure 2)
Links
[edit | edit source]- When key words are introduced, use interwiki links
- These links can go to:
- Wikipedia (e.g., Sigmund Freud wrote about (e.g., dreams) or
- Related book chapters (e.g., if your are struggling, you might be interested to read the chapter about writer's block)
Tables
[edit | edit source]- Use tables to organise and summarise information
- As with figures, tables should be captioned (e.g., see Table 1)
- Refer to each table at least once in the main text (e.g., see Table 1)
- Example 3 x 3 tables which could be adapted
Table 1. Descriptive Caption Which Explains The Table and its Relevant to the Text - Johari Window Model
Known to self | Not known to self | |
---|---|---|
Known to others | Open area | Blind spot |
Not known to others | Hidden area | Unknown |
Quizzes
[edit | edit source]- Using one or two review questions per major section is usually better than a long quiz at the end
- Quiz conceptual understanding, rather than trivia
- Don't make quizzes too hard
- Different types of quiz questions are possible; see Quiz
Example simple quiz questions. Choose your answers and click "Submit":
Conclusion
[edit | edit source]- The Conclusion is arguably the most important section
- The Conclusion is typically 150 to 330 words
- What are the take-home messages likely to be?
- It should be possible for someone to only read the Overview and the Conclusion and still get a good idea of the problem and what is known based on psychological science
