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

Overall

[edit source]
  1. Overall, this is an insufficient presentation mainly because:
    1. The presentation lacks explicit summary of relevant research
    2. Meta-data and licensing is lacking
    3. A conclusion with take-away messages in response to focus questions is lacking
  1. An opening slide with the title and sub-title is displayed and narrated — this helps to clearly convey the purpose of the presentation
  2. Consider creating an engaging introduction to hook audience interest
  3. A context for the topic is established
  4. Consider asking focus questions that lead to take-away messages. This will help to focus and discipline the presentation.
  1. The presentation discusses CB and some relevant theories in a basic way
  2. An appropriate amount of content is presented — not too much or too little
  3. The presentation makes good use of relevant psychological theory
  4. The presentation makes no explicit use of relevant psychological research
  5. Use APA style for citations (e.g., et al. when 3 or more authors)
  6. The presentation could be improved by making more use of examples or case studies
  1. The presentation could be strengthened by adding a Conclusion slide with practical, take-home messages in response to each focus question
  1. The presentation makes basic use of narrated audio
  2. Narration tone sounds bored or tired
  3. Audio communication is well paced
  4. Consider using greater intonation to enhance listener interest and engagement
  5. Audio recording quality was basic. Review microphone set-up to achieve higher recording quality.
  6. Probably an on-board microphone was used (e.g., keyboard and/or mouse clicks were audible). Consider using an external microphone.
  1. Overall, visual display quality is basic
  2. The presentation makes basic use of text-based slides
  3. The font size is sufficiently large to make it easy to read
  4. The amount of text presented per slide could be reduced to make it easier to read and listen at the same time
  5. Consider using bullet-points to break the text up and making it easier to read
  6. The visual communication could be improved by including some relevant images and/or diagrams
  7. The presentation is basically produced using simple tools
  8. Hide the audio icon
  1. The chapter title is used, but the sub-title (or a shortened version of it) is not used, as the name of the presentation. The sub-title (or an abbreviation of the sub-title that fits within the 100 character limit) would help to clearly convey the purpose of the presentation.
  2. A written description of the presentation is not provided. Providing an informative description can help viewers decide whether they want to watch or not.
  3. A link to the book chapter is not provided
  4. A link from the book chapter is provided
  1. A copyright license for the presentation is not provided

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 an insufficient chapter
  2. I suspect that the recommended 5 topic development hours and 45 book chapter hours were not invested in preparing this chapter.
  3. Insufficient use of primary, peer-reviewed sources as citations
  4. Well under the maximum word count, so there is room to expand
  5. For additional feedback, see the following comments and https://en.wikiversity.org/w/index.php?title=Motivation_and_emotion/Book/2022/Commitment_bias&type=revision&diff=2452203&oldid=2446725&diffmode=source[ these copyedits]
  1. Underdeveloped Overview
  2. Provide a more elaborate explanation of the problem or phenomenon
  3. Consider introducing a case study or example or using an image to help engage reader interest
  4. Add focus questions in a feature box to help guide the reader and structure the chapter
  1. Insufficient use of relevant psychological theory about this topic
  2. Build more strongly on other related chapters (e.g., by embedding links to other chapters)
  1. Insufficient depth is provided about relevant theory(ies)
  2. Lack of sufficient use of academic, peer-reviewed citations (e.g., see the [factual?] tags)
  1. Insufficient review of relevant research
  2. More detail about key studies would be ideal
  3. Greater emphasis on effect sizes, major reviews, and/or meta-analyses would be helpful
  4. Lack of sufficient use of academic, peer-reviewed citations (e.g., see the [factual?] tags)
  1. Insufficient critical thinking about relevant research is evident
  2. Critical thinking about research could be further evidenced by:
    1. describing the methodology (e.g., sample, measures) in important studies
    2. discussing the direction of relationships
    3. considering the strength of relationships
    4. acknowledging limitations
    5. pointing out critiques/counterarguments
    6. suggesting specific directions for future research
  3. Some claims are unreferenced (e.g., see the [factual?] tags)
  1. Insufficient integration between theory and research
  1. Insufficient as a cohesive summary of the best available psychological theory and research about the topic
  2. Summarise key points
  3. Add practical, take-home message(s)
  1. Written expression
    1. Overall, the quality of written expression is basic
    2. Some sentences are overly long (unnecessarily wordy). Strive for the simplest expression of the point being made. At the very least, consider splitting longer sentences into two shorter sentences.
    3. Avoid one sentence paragraphs. Convey one idea per paragraph using three to five sentences.
  2. Layout
    1. See earlier comments about heading casing
    2. Include an introductory paragraph before branching into the sub-sections (see [Provide more detail] tags)
  3. Grammar
    1. Check and correct use of possessive apostrophes (e.g., cats vs cat's vs cats')

[1]

  1. APA style
    1. Do not capitalise the names of disorders, therapies, theories, etc.
    2. Citations are not in full APA style (7th ed.). For example:\
      1. Do not include author first name or initials
      2. If there are three or more authors, cite the first author followed by et al., then year. For example, either:
        1. in-text, Smith et al. (2020), or
        2. in parentheses (Smith et al., 2020)
    3. References are not in full APA style. For example:
      1. Check and correct use of capitalisation[2]
      2. Separate page numbers using an en-dash (–) rather than a hyphen (-)
  1. Insufficient use of learning features
  2. No use of embedded in-text interwiki links to Wikipedia articles. Adding 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. One use of image(s)
    1. Make image larger so that it is easier to read
  5. No use of table(s)
  6. No use of feature box(es)
  7. No use of quiz(zes)
  8. No use of case studies or examples
  9. Basic use of interwiki links in the "See also" section
    1. Also include links to related book chapters
    2. Move external links to the external link section
  10. Basic use of external links in the "External links" section
    1. Use bullet points per Tutorial 02
    2. Use sentence casing
    3. Include sources in parentheses
  1. ~1 logged minor social contributions with direct links to evidence
