Hey, I like the topic you have chosen for your page, it's very interesting. In the overview section, putting 'Learning Objectives' may be a good idea, these can be 3 things that you want the readers to learn by reading your chapter. Good luck! --U3062955 (discuss • contribs) 00:05, 19 October 2016 (UTC)

Hi, I think your chapter question is really interesting. As an idea for content, I think it would be really cool to include some Australian Artists who have created important works. As a start, you may want to check out Sir Sidney Nolan, who created the famous Ned Kelley paintings. You can find some preliminary information on him here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sidney_Nolan

Hello, It would be great to discuss self determination theory in regards to. The vast majority of artists don't get any reward for their work, and so most of it would come from intrinsic motivation I would expect it would be from Competence and relatedness (Having people appreciate what you have made) And although lame, some quotes from one of these a site like this might be helpful http://www.artpromotivate.com/2012/09/famous-inspirational-art-quotes.html All the best! --Arlo Porter (discuss • contribs) 03:27, 13 September 2016 (UTC)

Hi this u3081127. Just wanted to say thank you for your recommendation. I already had that article. Two minds must think alike!! Yours sounds like a really interesting topic. Maybe you focus on a few artists such van Gough, Warhol or Picasso and dicuss their motivation to create art. --u3081127 (discuss • contribs) 23:47, 04 October 2016 (UTC)

Hi. Very interesting topic. I don't know if you have this already but I came across this article and thought you might find it useful. http://zh9bf5sp6t.search.serialssolutions.com/?ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&ctx_enc=info%3Aofi%2Fenc%3AUTF-8&rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fsummon.serialssolutions.com&rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Ajournal&rft.genre=article&rft.atitle=PSYCHOANALYSIS%2C+ARTISTIC+OBSESSION%2C+AND+ARTISTIC+MOTIVATION%3A+THE+STUDY+OF+PATHOGRAPHY1%2C2&rft.jtitle=Perceptual+and+Motor+Skills&rft.au=Kemler%2C+David+S&rft.date=2014-02-01&rft.issn=0031-5125&rft.eissn=1558-688X&rft.volume=118&rft.issue=1&rft.spage=225&rft.epage=245&rft_id=info:doi/10.2466%2F24.22.PMS.118k16w7&rft.externalDBID=n%2Fa&rft.externalDocID=10_2466_24_22_PMS_118k16w7&paramdict=en-US --U113403 (discuss • contribs) 14:05, 14 October 2016 (UTC)

Heading casing

FYI, the convention on Wikiversity is for lower-cased headings. For example, use: ==Cats and dogs== rather than ==Cats and Dogs== -- Jtneill - Talk - c 21:32, 21 October 2016 (UTC)

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. Responses to this feedback can be made by starting a new section below and/or contacting the reviewer. Chapter marks will be available later via Moodle, along with social contribution marks and feedback. Keep an eye on Announcements.

Overall Overall, this is a solid chapter which has a strong focus on theory and reports on some relevant research. The chapter has an effective structure and makes good use of the wiki environment. For more feedback see these copyedits and the comments below. Feel free to make ongoing changes to the chapter if you wish to address any of these comments or make other improvements. Theory The Overview establishes the importance/relevance of the topic. A helpful case study is provided - it could be expanded to reflect all theoretical perspectives. The description of types of artists and examples were helpful. The Conclusion is weak/vague - be clearer about the motivations and emphasise take-home messages (learnign outcomes). Research Some relevant research is described, but the chapter could be improved by describing key studies in more detail. Some statements are unreferenced (e.g., see the tags) When describing important research studies, provide some indication of the nature of the method. When discussing important research findings, indicate the size of effects in addition to whether or not there was an effect or relationship. Written expression Written expression is generally very good. Avoid one sentence paragraphs. A paragraph should typically consist of three to five sentences. For academic writing in psychology, such as this book chapter, write in third person rather than first (e.g., avoid "I', "we", "our") or second (e.g., "you", "your" etc.) person perspective. Structure and headings Avoid sections with only one sub-section. A section should have no sub-sections or at least two sub-sections. Each section should start with at least one introductory paragraph before branching into sub-sections. Layout Tables and/or Figures are used effectively. Tables and Figures should be referred to in the main text. Integration with other chapters The chapter provides several relevant links to other Wikiversity pages. Learning features Excellent use of interwiki links to relevant Wikipedia articles. Quiz questions are used effectively to encourage reader engagement. Spelling Use Australian spelling (some general examples are hypothesize -> hypothesise; behavior -> behaviour). Grammar and proofreading Check and correct the use of abbreviations (such as "e.g.," and "i.e.,"). The grammar of some sentences could be improved (e.g., see the tags). APA style Use APA style for table and figure captions. Check and correct the APA style for how to report numbers (Numbers under 10 should be written in words (e.g., five); numbers 10 and over should be written in numbers (e.g., 10)). Check and correct the use of "&" vs. "and" (Use ampersand (&) inside brackets and "and" outside brackets). The APA style for the reference list is very good; remove issue numbers for paginated journals.
