suggestion[edit source]

Hey! I am actually a really big gamer myself, and I actually was interested in this topic, but you already had it haha :D, anyway I found this really interesting article that I noticed you haven't included so hopefully it can be of help https://dl.acm.org/doi/fullHtml/10.1145/2212877.2212883 --U3202984 (discusscontribs) 11:53, 15 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Heading casing[edit source]

FYI, the recommended Wikiversity heading style uses sentence casing. For example:

Self-determination theory rather than Self-Determination Theory

Here's an example chapter with correct heading casing: Growth mindset development

Chapter review and feedback[edit source]

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. Chapter marks will be available via UCLearn along with social contribution marks and feedback. Keep an eye on Announcements.

Overall[edit source]

  1. Overall, this is a basic, but sufficient chapter.
  2. For additional feedback, see the following comments and these copyedits.

Overview[edit source]

  1. Basic Overview.
  2. Explains the problem or phenomenon.
  3. Emphasise the work context.
  4. Add focus questions in a feature box to help guide the reader and structure the chapter.
  5. Consider introducing a case study or example or using an image to help engage reader interest.

Theory — Breadth[edit source]

  1. Basic but sufficient coverage of relevant theory is provided.
  2. Overreliance on Seppo as a citation.
  3. Build more strongly on other related chapters (e.g., by embedding links to other chapters in this category: Category:Motivation and emotion/Book/Work).

Theory — Depth[edit source]

  1. Basic depth is provided about the selected theory(ies).
  2. Did you consult Maslow (1940)? If not, this should be cited as a secondary source.
  3. Some useful examples are provided to illustrate theoretical concepts.

Research — Key findings[edit source]

  1. Basic overview of relevant research.
  2. The table containing descriptive statistics is unnecessary detail. But reporting of effect sizes would be useful.
  3. Greater emphasis on effect sizes, major reviews, and/or meta-analyses would be helpful.

Research — Critical thinking[edit source]

  1. Basic critical thinking about research is evident.

Integration[edit source]

  1. Insufficient integration of theory and research.

Conclusion[edit source]

  1. Basic summary.
  2. Address the focus questions.
  3. Add practical, take-home message(s).

Written expression — Style[edit source]

  1. Written expression
    1. Overall, the quality of written expression is basic.
    2. Use 3rd person perspective (e.g., "it") rather than 1st (e.g., "we") or 2nd person (e.g., "you") perspective[1] in the main text, although 1st or 2nd person perspective can work well for case studies or feature boxes.
    3. Avoid one sentence paragraphs. A paragraph should typically consist of three to five sentences.
  2. Layout
    1. Use the default heading style (e.g., remove additional bold, underline etc.).
    2. Abbreviate the longer headings.
    3. Sections which branch into sub-sections should include an introductory paragraph before branching into the sub-sections.
    4. See earlier comments about heading casing.
  3. Grammar
    1. The grammar for many sentences could be improved (e.g., see the [grammar?] tags). Grammar-checking tools are available in most internet browsers and word processing software packages. Another option is to share draft work with peers and ask for their assistance.
    2. Check and correct use of ownership apostrophes (e.g., individuals vs. individual's vs individuals').[2].
    3. Use serial commas[3] — they are part of APA style and are generally recommended by grammaticists. Here's an explanatory video (1 min).
    4. Check and correct use of affect vs. effect.
    5. Abbreviations
      1. Check and correct grammatical formatting for abbreviations (such as e.g., i.e., et al., etc.).
  4. Spelling
    1. Spelling can be improved (e.g., see the [spelling?] tags). Spell-checking tools are available in most internet browsers and word processing software packages.
    2. Use Australian spelling (e.g., hypothesize vs. hypothesise; behavior vs. behaviour).
  5. Proofreading
    1. More proofreading is needed to fix typos and bring the quality of written expression closer to a professional standard.
    2. Remove unnecessary capitalisation (e.g., Gamification -> gamification).
  6. APA style
    1. Use double (not single) quotation marks "to introduce a word or phrase used as an ironic comment, as slang, or as an invented or coined expression; use quotation marks only for the first occurrence of the word or phrase, not for subsequent occurrences" (APA 7th ed., 2020, p. 159).
    2. Numbers under 10 should be written in words (e.g., five); numbers 10 and over should be written in numerals (e.g., 10).
    3. Tables
      1. Table captions should use APA style. See example.
      2. Each Table is referred to at least once within the main text.
    4. Citations use correct APA style.
    5. References are not in full APA style. For example:
      1. Check and correct use of capitalisation[4]
      2. Check and correct use of italicisation
      3. Add spaces between author initials
      4. Page numbers should be separated by an en-dash (–) rather than a hyphen (-)
      5. Include hyperlinked dois

Written expression — Learning features[edit source]

  1. Overall, the use of learning features is insufficient.
  2. Basic use of embedded in-text interwiki links to Wikipedia articles. Adding more interwiki links for the first mention of key words and technical concepts would make the text more interactive. See example.
  3. No use of embedded in-text links to related book chapters. Embedding in-text links to related book chapters helps to integrate this chapter into the broader book project.
  4. No use of image(s).
  5. Basic use of table(s).
  6. No use of feature box(es).
  7. Basic use of quiz(zes).
  8. Good use of case studies or examples.
  9. Basic use of interwiki links in the "See also" section.
  10. Basic use of external links in the "External links" section.

Social contribution[edit source]

  1. No logged social contributions.

(Lewis.Kusk (discusscontribs) = U3203414) - Suggestions and comments[edit source]

Hello,


I thought your topic was one of interest to me as I enjoy video games. I liked your use of case studies to provide examples, as well as how you clearly set out your chapter with your use of titles.


I have a couple suggestions if you wanted to improve your chapter. One suggestion is to include focus questions as these help guide the reader through the chapter. Another suggestion was to include another quiz with some slightly trickier questions. A final suggestion would be to include a couple more peer reviewed references in your chapter as this would strengthen your findings.


I really enjoyed learning about gamification so thank you for writing about it :) Lewis.Kusk (discusscontribs) 04:19, 15 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
