Note that marks are based on what was available before the due date, whereas the comments may also be based on all material available at time of providing this feedback.
Consider linking to your eportfolio page and/or any other professional online profile or resume such as LinkedIn. This is not required, but it can be useful to interlink your professional networks.
Avoid having sections with 1 sub-heading - use 0 or 2+ sub-headings
Basic heading development
The main recommended area for improvement is focus less on background concepts (such as what are schemas) and to expand the heading structure around this chapter's topic (relationship between self-schemas and motivation)
add a description of the problem and what will be covered
focus the focus questions more closely as the topic (i.e., around the sub-title)
an image
an example or case study
Key points are well developed for each section, with relevant citations
Good balance of theory and research
Include in-text interwiki links for the first mention of key terms to relevant Wikipedia articles and/or to other relevant book chapters. This is particularly important for this chapter as there are several other chapters about closely related concepts.
Promising use of examples/case studies
Conclusion (the most important section):
hasn't been developed
what might the take-home, practical messages be?
in a nutshell, what are the answer(s) to the question(s) in the sub-title?

Consider slowing down and leaving longer pauses between sentences. This can help the viewer to cognitively digest the information that has just been presented before moving on to the next point.
Very good intonation enhances listener interest and engagement.

Chapter marks will be available via UCLearn along with social contribution marks and feedback. Keep an eye on Announcements.
There is too much general theoretical material. Summarise schemas more briefly and concentrate on the relationship between self-schemas and motivation.
Basic but sufficient coverage of relevant theory is provided.
Overall, the quality of written expression is basic.
Avoid one sentence paragraphs. A paragraph should typically consist of three to five sentences.
Some paragraphs are overly long. Each paragraph should communicate one key idea in three to five sentences.
"People" is often a better term than "individuals".
Grammar
The grammar for some 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.
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.
One 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.
Good use of image(s).
No use of table(s).
Basic use of feature box(es).
No use of quiz(zes).
Good use of case studies or examples.
Good use of interwiki links in the "See also" section.
Very good use of external links in the "External links" section.
