Nice! I really like your chapter so far, it's very interesting from the get-go and very well written. Good work :) --U3117275 (discusscontribs) 16:21, 12 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This looks really interesting! Can't wait to read it when it is done. Have you thought about using comparisons of stage fright to public speaking? It may help you to find useful sources. good luck!--JEMwarren (discusscontribs) 09:34, 13 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, Interseting topic, can't wait to see how it comes along. I have provided a couple of links to Journal articles that may be helpful, one discusses the neural correlates of speech anticipatory anxiety and the other talks about exposure therapy as a means of overcoming it. Good luck with the chapter. https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Samet_Kose/publication/8132932_Neural_correlates_of_speech_anticipatory_anxiety_in_generalized_social_phobia/links/00b7d523df5dcc5307000000.pdf http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/03634520802450549--U3090066 (discusscontribs) 19:21, 13 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Good job, it looks great so far! Looking forward to reading the rest. Good luck!

Hi, it is really interesting topic.You have provided useful information. Public speaking is really diffucult but it is more diffucult who has a language barrier. I have provided for you a link about speaking and anxiety that you may find interesting. http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1944-9720.1990.tb00424.x/full --Gamze101 (discusscontribs) 23:25, 2 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Linking key words[edit source]

Hey just thought I would suggest adding some links to your key words like public speaking and anxiety, good luck!--JEMwarren (discusscontribs) 10:19, 23 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Heading casing[edit source]

FYI, the convention on Wikiversity is for lower-cased headings. For example, use:

==Cats and dogs==

rather than

==Cats and Dogs==

Written expression[edit source]

    1. The chapter successfully addresses the topic and book theme.
  2. Structure and headings
    1. Each section should start with at least one introductory paragraph before branching into sub-sections.

    3. Add See also section.
  3. Layout
    1. Several images are used, but the chapter could be improved by making the captions more explanatory.
    2. Add bullet-points for See also and External links.

    1. No integration with other chapters is evident.
  5. Learning features
    1. Some use of interwiki links to relevant Wikipedia articles - more could be added.
    2. Quiz questions are used effectively to encourage reader engagement.
  6. Spelling
    1. Use Australian spelling (some general examples are hypothesize -> hypothesise; behavior -> behaviour).
  7. Grammar and proofreading
    1. Check and correct the use of ownership apostrophes (e.g., individuals vs. individual's vs. individuals').
    2. Check and correct the use of [1]abbreviations (such as "e.g.," and "i.e.,")].
  8. APA style
    1. Check and correct the use of "&" vs. "and" (Use ampersand (&) inside brackets and "and" outside brackets).
    2. Check and correct the APA style formatting of in-text citations (et al.).
    3. 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)).
    4. Put in-text citations in alphabetical order.
    5. The APA style for the reference list is very good; remove issue numbers for paginated journals.
