Heading casing

[edit source]
FYI, the convention on Wikiversity is for lower-cased headings (or sentence casing). For example, use:

==Cats and dogs==

rather than

==Cats and Dogs==

Key points

[edit source]
  1. Avoid overuse of direct quotes - better to express in your own words.
  2. Rewrite sentences to avoid starting with author names - start with explaining the concept instead.

  4. Overview - Consider adding focus questions.
  5. Include in-text interwiki links for the first mention of key terms to relevant Wikipedia articles and/or to other relevant book chapters.
  6. Consider introducing a case study in the Overview.
  7. Consider including more examples/case studies.
  8. Consider embedding one quiz question per major section.
  1. An image (figure) is presented.
  2. Add an APA style caption.
  3. Cite each figure at least once in the main text.

Comments

[edit source]

Will we ever self forgive? What satisfaction can we get if we self-forgive? How do we know if we are doing self-forgiveness? Do we have enough patience with our own selves to self-forgive? These are all my questions when I saw your topic. You have selected things to talk about that directly discuss your title, simple but straight forward. Perhaps, your topic is such an interesting topic! We tend to not self-forgive, we tend not to be so patient with ourselves. Maybe you can have like a case study that can relate to your topic. Then perhaps, use the self-assessment that you are going to talk about and apply it in your case study. This can make your page more interacting. U3165224

Overall

[edit source]
  1. Overall, this is a very good chapter that successfully uses psychological theory to help address a practical, real-world phenomenon or problem. Excellent use of examples. Use of research could be further developed.
  2. For additional feedback, see following comments and these copyedits.
  1. Relevant theories are well selected, described, and explained.
  2. Examples are provided.
  3. There is emphasis on practical steps that can be implemented.
  1. Some relevant research is well reviewed and discussed in relation to theory.
  2. When describing important research findings, consider including a bit more detail about the methodology and indicate the size of effects in addition to whether or not there was an effect or relationship.
  3. Greater emphasis on major reviews and/or meta-analyses would be helpful.
  1. Written expression
    1. Overall, the quality of written expression is very good.
    2. Addressing the topic development feedback could have helped to improve this chapter.
  2. Avoid overuse of direct quotes - better to express in your own words.
    1. Direct quotes should be embedded within sentences and paragraphs, rather than dumped holus-bolus. Even better, communicate the concept in your own words.
  3. Rewrite sentences to avoid starting with author names - start with explaining the concept instead.
    1. Use third person perspective rather than first person (e.g., "we") or second person (e.g., "you") perspective[1].
  4. Layout
    1. Avoid having sections with only one sub-section.
    2. Sections which include sub-sections should also include an introductory paragraph (which doesn't need a separate heading) before branching into the sub-headings.
  5. Learning features
    1. Adding interwiki links for the first mention of key words and technical concepts would make the text more interactive.
    2. No use of embedded links to related book chapters such as on self-compassion. Embedding links links to related book chapters helps to integrate this chapter into the broader book project.
    3. Basic use of images.
    4. Good use of tables.
    5. No use of feature boxes.
    6. Basic use of quizzes.
    7. The quiz questions could be more effective as learning prompts by being embedded as single questions within each corresponding section rather than being presented as a set of questions at the end.
    8. Excellent use of case studies or examples.
  6. Grammar
    1. Check and correct use of ownership apostrophes (e.g., individuals vs. individual's vs individuals').[2].
    2. Use serial commas[3] - it is part of APA style and generally recommended by grammaticists.
    3. Abbreviations
      1. Abbreviations (such as e.g., i.e.., etc.) should only be used inside parentheses.
  7. Spelling
    1. Use Australian spelling (e.g., hypothesize vs. hypothesise; behavior vs. behaviour; fulfillment vs. fulfilment).
  8. APA style
    1. Direct quotes need page numbers.
    2. Citations and references using a combination of APA style and wiki-style. Choose one or the other and be consistent.
  1. ~1 logged social contributions without direct links to evidence

Overall

[edit source]
  1. Overall, this is a basic presentation.
  2. This presentation makes effective use of simple tools.
  3. The presentation is over the maximum time limit - content beyond 3 mins is ignored for marking purposes.
  1. Many of the same comments about the Topic Development and Book Chapter also apply here (e.g., overuse of direct quotes).
  2. Add and narrate an Overview slide (e.g., with focus questions), to help orientate the viewer about what will be covered.
  3. What are the practical take-home message(s) that we can use to help improve our everyday lives?
  4. The presentation could be strengthened by adding a Conclusion slide with practical, take-home messages within the 3 min. time limit.
  1. The presentation make basic use of text and image based slides with narrated audio.
  2. Well paced.
  3. Some of the font size should be larger to make it easier to read.
  4. The visual communication is supplemented by images.
  1. The chapter title but not the sub-title are used in the video title - the latter would help to clearly convey the purpose of the presentation.
  2. The chapter title and sub-title are used on the opening slide - this helps to clearly convey the purpose of the presentation.
  3. Audio recording quality was a bit quiet - probably an on-board microphone was used because keyboard clicks were audible. Consider using an external microphone.
  4. Visual display quality was poor - several the slides look "dirty" which make them difficult to read.
  5. Image sources and their copyright status are provided in very small font on the slides, but it is difficult for a viewer to access and check these images. Ideally, also include these details in the video description.
  6. A copyright license for the presentation is provided.
  7. A link to the book chapter is provided.
  8. A link from the book chapter is provided.
  9. A brief written description of the presentation is provided.
