Heading casing

[edit source]

Hi Stefany, for my social contribution I have helped you edit some of your headings (only their casing) as James had flagged me for having capitals throughout my writing. To help save you some marks I hope it is okay that I have taken the initiative change these. I think this is a really interesting topic you have chosen and something that I feel affects most people within modern society. I'm looking forward to reading your chapter! --SammyTabrett (discusscontribs) 06:51, 3 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

Suggestion for overview case study

[edit source]

Well done on your chapter so far! I am looking forward to reading it. I have a suggestion about the case study. I suggest including an image in the overview that is related to your case study. Nabila.Tursun (discusscontribs) 13:28, 24 August 2023 (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

  1. Overall, this is a good to very good chapter. It makes very good use of psychological theory and OK use of research to address a real-world phenomenon or problem.
  2. Excellent/Very good/Reasonably good/Basic use of academic, peer-reviewed citations to support claims
  3. Use of academic, peer-reviewed citations is lacking in some places (e.g., see the [factual?] tags)
  4. Insufficient use of primary, peer-reviewed sources as citations
  5. Move non-peer reviewed links into the external links section

  1. Well developed
  2. Engages reader interest by presenting a case study and/or scenario with an image in a feature box
  3. Clearly explains the problem or phenomenon

  3. Any systematic reviews or meta-analyses in this area?
  4. Insufficient use of academic, peer-reviewed citations (e.g., see the [factual?] tags)
  5. Basic critical thinking about relevant research is evident
  6. 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
  7. Some claims are unreferenced (e.g., see the [factual?] tags)
  1. Very good/Good/Reasonably good/Basic/Insufficient integration between theory and research
  2. The chapter places more emphasis on theory than on research
  1. Very good summary and conclusion
  2. Key points are well summarised
  3. Add practical, take-home message(s)
  1. Written expression
    1. Overall, the quality of written expression is good but there are several aspects which are below professional standard

    1. The chapter is well structured, with major sections using sub-sections
    2. Include an introductory paragraph before branching into the sub-sections (see [Provide more detail] tags)
  3. Grammar
    1. The grammar for some/many sentences could be improved (e.g., see the [grammar?] tags)

    4. Check and correct use of possessive apostrophes (e.g., cats vs cat's vs cats')[1]
    5. Abbreviations
      1. Only use abbreviations such as e.g., i.e., et al., etc. inside parentheses, otherwise spell out
  4. Spelling
    1. Some words are misspelt (e.g., see the [spelling?] tags). Spell-checking tools are available in most internet browsers and word processing software packages.## Use Australian spelling (e.g., hypothesize vs. hypothesise; behavior vs. behaviour)
  5. Proofreading
    1. More proofreading is needed (e.g., fix punctuation and typographical errors) to bring the quality of written expression closer to a professional standard
    2. Remove unnecessary capitalisation
  6. APA style
    1. Use sentence casing for the names of disorders, therapies, theories, etc.
    2. Use serial commas[2]. See explanatory video (1 min)

      2. Refer to each Table using APA style (e.g., do not use italics, check and correct capitalisation)
    6. Citations are not in full APA style (7th ed.). For example:
      1. A full stop is needed after "et al" (i.e., "et al.") because it is an abbreviation of et alii
      2. Move non-peer-reviewed sources to the external links section
    7. References are not in full APA style. For example:
      1. Check and correct use of capitalisation[3]
      2. Check and correct use of italicisation
      3. Separate page numbers using an en-dash (–) rather than a hyphen (-)
      4. Include hyperlinked dois
      5. Move non-peer-reviewed sources to the external links section
  1. Very good use of learning features
  2. Reasonably 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.
  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. Use in-text interwiki links, rather than external links, per Tutorial 02
  5. Move links to non-peer-reviewed sources to the external links section
  6. Reasonably good use of image(s)

  8. Excellent use of feature box(es)
  9. Reasonably good use of case studies or examples
  10. Reasonably good use of quiz(zes) and/or reflection question(s)
  11. The quiz questions could be more effective as learning prompts by being embedded as single questions within each corresponding section rather than as a set of questions at the end
  12. Reasonably good use of interwiki links in the "See also" section
    1. Use sentence casing
    2. Use alphabetical order
    3. Include sources in parentheses
    4. Move external links to the external links section
  13. Reasonably good use of external links in the "External links" section
    1. Use sentence casing
    2. Use alphabetical order
