Comments[edit source]

Hi, I have found a great article titled: "Facial expressions, smile types, and self-report during humour, tickle and pain. The introduction of the article will be very helpful for your overview section of your chapter. It discusses the fact that a tickle has been poorly understood and you could begin your chapter by stating this. You could also mention Darwin's views on tickling which are stated in the introduction of the article and throughout and state how his views have withheld throughout the years in tickle research. The current study explored participants reactions to tickling and compared these with reactions to pain and humour. You could format some of your chapter in this way (breaking your headings up into pleasant and unpleasant reactions of tickling). it would be interesting from a readers perspective to explore these two opposing views and would make for an excellent discussion point in your conclusion. All the best I have included the link to the article here which can be accessed through the university library website (EBSCOhost). http://web.b.ebscohost.com.ezproxy.canberra.edu.au/ehost/detail/detail?vid=58&sid=889252a6-f974-4d48-9291-aad9a8a0aefa%40sessionmgr101&hid=124&bdata=#AN=17835460&db=bth I hope this is helpful for you ! --LeoDean1993 (discusscontribs) 07:25, 25 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

- also you could look at laughing and when things go wrong e.g. in some cases of brain injury people are unable to distinguish between laughing and crying and this may be due to the same areas of brain activation. --U3166203 (discusscontribs) 22:33, 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==

Multimedia feedback

The accompanying multimedia presentation has been marked according to the marking criteria. Marks are available via the unit's Moodle site. Written feedback is provided below, plus see the general feedback page. Responses to this feedback can be made by starting a new section below. If you would like further clarification about the marking or feedback, contact the unit convener.

Overall[edit source]

  1. Overall, this is a basic, but sufficient presentation.

Structure and content[edit source]

  1. Overview OK
  2. Selection and organisation
    1. Too much content is presented - be more selective - e.g., work backwards from 3 take-home messages to work out what content needs to be presented - and then focus on only that which is essential to conveying these messages.
    2. Theory rich; research poor.
    3. Consider using more illustrative examples.
    4. Doesn't clearly address a self-help theme.
    5. Citations and references are included.
  3. Conclusion
    1. None provided.
    2. A Conclusion slide summarising the take-home messages / key points could be helpful.

Communication[edit source]

  1. Audio
    1. Audio is clear and well-paced.
  2. Visuals
    1. Basic - approximately half a dozen text-based slides with some images.
    2. Consider including images, figures, and/or tables.

Production quality[edit source]

  1. Overall, basic production.
  2. Meta-data
    1. Well titled.
    2. Link to and from the book chapter provided.
    3. Expand the Description field (e.g., provide a brief description of the presentation).
  3. Audio recording quality
    1. Audio has some white noise and is a bit echoey - review microphone set-up.
  4. Image/video recording quality
    1. Effective use of simple tools.
  5. Licensing
    1. A copyright license for the presentation is not indicated (i.e., in the meta-data or the visual presentation).
