Heading casing

[edit source]
Hi U3166273. 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

Children needle fear

[edit source]

Very interesting topic! I work in a medical centre and always see children with needle phobias attending the practice. One thing I have learnt through observation/the nurses telling stories is that most needle phobias from kids comes from the parent being overly worried - the fear must come from somewhere! It would be interesting to see how parents who are not scared of needles pass this fear down to their children. At our centre we offer these families the choice to call when they are in the carpark and the nurse will get them when she is ready, I personally find this making the situation more serious/dramatic/scary so I wonder if there is any research behind this too. --GeorgiaFairweather (discusscontribs) 11:28, 10 October 2022 (UTC)Reply


Topic development feedback

[edit source]

The topic development 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 see editing changes made whilst reviewing this chapter plan. Responses to this feedback can be made by starting a new section below and/or contacting the reviewer. Topic development marks are available via UCLearn. Note that marks are based on what was available before the due date, whereas the comments below may also be about all material on the page at the time of providing this feedback.

  1. The title and sub-title are incorrect. Be consistent with the book table of contents.
  1. Good
  2. Brief description about self provided – consider expanding
  3. Very brief description about self provided – consider expanding
  4. 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.
  5. Link provided to book chapter
  1. At least one contribution has been made and summarised with indirect link(s) to evidence
  2. Add direct links to evidence. To do this: View the page history, select the version of the page before and after your contributions, click "compare selected revisions", and then use this website address as a direct link to evidence for listing on your user page. For more info, see Making and summarising social contributions.
  1. See earlier comment about Heading casing
  2. Well-developed, mostly 2-level heading structure
  3. Effective use of questions as the top-level headings
  4. The original sub-title offers a pretty clear top-level structure (it contains three questions) which partly matches the proposed heading structure.
  1. Promising, partial development of key points for each section, with limited use of relevant citations
  2. For sections which include sub-sections include key points for an overview paragraph prior to branching into the sub-headings
  3. Overview - Consider adding:
    1. focus questions
    2. an image
    3. an example or case study
  4. Strive for an integrated balance of theory and research
  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 including more examples/case studies
  7. Conclusion (the most important section):
    1. Under developed
  8. Generally well-written, but I recommend using the Studiosity service and/or a service like Grammarly to help improve the quality of written expression because there are a lot of grammatical and spelling errors.
  1. A relevant figure is presented
  2. Caption could better explain how the image connects to key points being made in the main text
  3. Cite each figure at least once in the main text
  1. Move non-peer-reviewed sources to External links
  2. Not all references have been cited
  3. For APA referencing style, check and correct:
    1. capitalisation
    2. make doi hyperlinks active (i.e., clickable)
  1. See also
  2. External links
    1. Excellent

  7. Add focus questions in a feature box to help guide the reader and structure the chapter

  1. Written expression
    1. Overall, the quality of written expression is very good
    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. "People" is often a better term than "individuals"
  2. Grammar
    1. The grammar for some sentences could be improved (e.g., see the [grammar?] tags)
      1. Grammar-checking tools are available in most internet browsers and word processing software packages.[2]
      2. Another option is to share draft work with peers and ask for their assistance.
    2. Check and make correct use of commas
    3. Use serial commas[3] – they are part of APA style and are generally recommended by grammaticists. See explanatory video (1 min)
    4. Abbreviations
      1. Once an abbreviation is established (e.g., CBT), use it consistently. Don't set up an abbreviation and then not use it or only use it sometimes.
  3. Spelling
    1. Use Australian spelling (e.g., hypothesize vs. hypothesise; behavior vs. behaviour)
  4. 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. Figures
      1. Figures are very well captioned
      2. Each Figure is referred to at least once within the main text
    3. Citations use correct APA style
    4. References are not in full APA style. For example:
      1. Check and correct use of italicisation
  1. Excellent use of learning features
  2. Excellent use of embedded in-text interwiki links to Wikipedia articles
  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. Excellent use of image(s)
  5. No use of table(s)
  6. Excellent use of feature box(es)
  7. Excellent use of quiz(zes)
  8. Excellent use of case studies or examples

  10. Excellent use of external links in the "External links" section
  1. ~8 logged, useful, minor/moderate/major social contributions with direct links to evidence
