It looks like you have some great ideas for your page. I found a peer-reviewed article which you may find interesting or could help you in your research. This article in particular talks about what happens when your morning routine is disrupted and how it can affect work engagement. --U3223849 (discuss • contribs) 01:45, 22 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hey there! I think that you have a really interesting topic for your book chapter and that is it coming along really well. After reading it however, I do have a few suggestions that I think could improve it
1. In your overview where you have "Key concepts of a morning routine to maximise motivation, productivity, and well-being:" I think you should move this to a different section. It just seems a bit odd in my opinion to have it in the overview. Perhaps create a morning routine section.
2. I think you have some great focus questions but perhaps consider shortening them. I have found when I am reading other chapters, including yours, I tend to forget the focus questions due to there being so many. I find 3 focus questions to be the sweet spot Maybe narrow them down too....
What is motivation?
What affects motivation, productivity, and well-being (such as sleep, sunlight, temperature and caffeine)?
How can we optimise our morning routine to maximise motivation, productivity, and well-being?
3. I think instead of your sections being titled - sleep, sunlight, temp and exercise, perhaps reduce it to productivity and well-being, then fit sleep, sunlight, temp and exercise into those sections.
4. Adding a case study is a great way to add the readers attention. I have seen other people create one case study at the beginning of the book chapter and then link that individual with the rest of the sections. I unfortunately can't see myself doing that with my chapter due to my topic, but I think it would be really great for yours. e.g:
Case study one in overview: Emma is not a morning person...
Case study two in temperature-cold shower section: Emma has started taking cold showers, waking up in the morning is easier
... or something like that.
5. Remember that we need to put our non-academic sources in the 'external links' section

The topic development submission 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 for 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.
For sections which include sub-sections include key points for an overview paragraph prior to branching into the sub-headings
Avoid providing too much background information. Briefly summarise general concepts and provide internal wiki links to relevant book chapters and/or Wikipedia pages for further information. Then focus most of the content of this on directly answering the core question(s) posed by the chapter sub-title.
Strive for an integrated balance of theory and research
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.
One types of contributions with direct link(s) to evidence
How to do social contributions is covered in Tutorial 03. Looking ahead to the book chapter submission, see how to earn marks for social contributions.

Chapter marks will be available via UCLearn along with social contribution marks and feedback. Keep an eye on Announcements.
Overall, this is an insufficient chapter mainly because the content is largely about sleep rather than psychological theory and research about optimal morning routines. The chapter is also fatally flawed by the lack of citation of peer-reviewed literature upon which the claims are based.
Insufficient use of primary, peer-reviewed sources as citations
Insufficient use of relevant psychological theory about this topic
Most of the theory is about aspect of the circadian rhythm and sleep rather than being more targetted about morning routines
Reduce general theoretical background (e.g., about sleep). Instead, summarise and link to related resources (i.e., other book chapters and/or Wikipedia articles). Increase emphasis on substantive aspects of theory that relate directly to the specific topic (i.e., the sub-title question).
Builds effectively on related Wikipedia articles
Build more strongly on related chapters and/or Wikipedia articles (e.g., by embedding links to other chapters)
Basic depth is provided about relevant theory(ies)
Use tables, figures, and/or lists are to help convey key theoretical information
Insufficient use of academic, peer-reviewed citations (e.g., see the [factual?] tags)
Some use of examples to illustrate theoretical concepts
Overall, the quality of written expression is promising but below professional standard due to insufficient citation of the best peer-reviewed theory and research about this topic
Some paragraphs are overly long. Communicate one key idea per paragraph in three to five sentences.
More proofreading is needed (e.g., fix punctuation and typographical errors) to bring the quality of written expression closer to a professional standard
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" (APA 7th ed., 2020, p. 159)
Express numbers < 10 using words (e.g., two) and >= 10 and over using numerals (e.g., 99)
Figures
Figures are very well captioned
Refer to each Figure at least once within the main text (e.g., see Figure 1)
Citations are not in full APA style (7th ed.). For example:
A full stop is needed after "et al" (i.e., "et al.") because it is an abbreviation of et alii
Very limited reference list
References are not in full APA style. For example:
Very good 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 even more interactive. See example.
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.
Move links to non-peer-reviewed sources to the external links section
Very good use of image(s)
No use of table(s)
Basic use of feature box(es)
Basic use of case studies or examples
No use of quiz(zes) and/or reflection question(s)
Basic use of interwiki links in the "See also" section
Also include links to related Wikipedia articles
Basic use of external links in the "External links" section

The accompanying multimedia presentation has been marked according to the marking criteria. Marks are available via the unit's UCLearn site. Written feedback is provided below, plus see the general feedback page. Responses to this feedback can be made by starting a new section below. If you would like further clarification about the marking or feedback, contact the unit convener.
Audio recording quality was OK. Review microphone set-up to achieve higher recording quality. Probably an on-board microphone was used (e.g., keyboard and/or mouse clicks were audible). Consider using an external microphone.
The narrated content is well matched to the target topic (see content)
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.
A written description of the presentation is provided
Links to and from the book chapter are provided
An active hyperlink to the book chapter is provided
The presentation is incorrectly categorised as being for kids. This creates limitations, such as being unable to add the presentation to a playlist. More info.
