Talk:Motivation and emotion/Book/2023/Time management

Initial suggestions

@Madison.Mayo: Thanks for tackling this topic.

Some initial suggestions:

• There have been previous, but problematic attempts at this chapter (2011 and 2022), so check out those chapters and the feedback on their talk pages when planning this chapter.
• This should be a high level chapter which integrates links to more specific chapters such as those listed in this category: Category:Motivation and emotion/Book/Time management. Check out those chapters and see how you can build on, link to, and integrate with that work.

Let me know if I can do anything else as you go along.

Sincerely, James -- Jtneill - Talk - c 03:14, 6 August 2023 (UTC)

Title The title is correctly worded and formatted The sub-title is correctly worded and formatted Headings Excellent – Well developed 2-level heading structure, with meaningful headings that directly relate to the core topic Overview Excellent - Scenario, image, evocative description of the problem/topic, relevant psychological theory/research, and focus questions Move the scenario or case study into a feature box (with an image) to the start of this section to help catch reader interest A brief, evocative description of the problem/topic is provided Use 3rd person perspective e.g., for the focus questions (except 1st/2nd person can work for feature boxes/scenarios) Focus questions are aligned with sub-title and top-level headings Key points Excellent – key points are well developed for each section, with relevant citations This may run over the word count, so be prepared to be selective about what is essential and what isn't Promising balance of theory and research; ideal is to integrate/synthesise use of theory and research plus practical examples Conclusion (the most important section): Well developed Figure Excellent - A relevant figure is presented, captioned, and cited Caption could better explain how the image connects to key points being made in the main text Learning feature Promising use of in-text interwiki links for the first mention of key terms to relevant Wikipedia articles and/or to other relevant book chapters Headings should not be hyperlinked Excellent use of example(s)/case study(ies) References Good Are there any systematic reviews about this topic? For APA referencing style, check and correct: capitalisation italicisation Check how to present books Include dois Remember that the goal is to identify and use the best academic theory and research about this topic Resources See also Excellent External links Excellent Very good Use sentence casing User page Created – minimal, but sufficient Very brief description about self provided – consider expanding Consider linking to your eportfolio page and/or any other professional online profile or resume such as LinkedIn.

Heading casing

Hi Madison.Mayo. 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 -- Jtneill - Talk - c 01:33, 4 October 2023 (UTC)

Overall Overall, this is a good chapter. It is very well written and presented, makes excellent use of psychological theory, but lacks sufficient review of time management research. For additional feedback, see the following comments and these copyedits Overview Well developed Engages reader interest by introducing a case study and/or scenario with an image in a feature box Clearly explains the problem or phenomenon Clear focus questions Theory An excellent range of relevant theories are selected, described, and explained Builds effectively on related chapters and Wikipedia articles Very good depth is provided about relevant theory(ies) No use of tables, figures, and/or lists are to help clearly convey key theoretical information Lack of sufficient use of academic, peer-reviewed citations (e.g., see the tags) Very good use of examples to illustrate theoretical concepts Research Insufficient review of relevant research More detail about key studies would be ideal Any systematic reviews or meta-analyses in this area? Greater emphasis on effect sizes could be helpful. Lack of sufficient use of academic, peer-reviewed citations (e.g., see the tags) Insufficient critical thinking about relevant research is evident Critical thinking about research could be further evidenced by: describing the methodology (e.g., sample, measures) in important studies discussing the direction of relationships considering the strength of relationships acknowledging limitations pointing out critiques/counterarguments suggesting specific directions for future research Many claims are unreferenced (e.g., see the tags) Integration Basic integration between theory and research Conclusion Reasonably good summary and conclusion Ideally, provide a cohesive summary of the best available psychological theory and research about the topic Remind the reader about the importance of the problem or phenomenon of interest Key points are summarised Somewhat clear take-home message(s) Style Written expression Overall, the quality of written expression is excellent Some paragraphs are overly long. Communicate one key idea per paragraph in three to five sentences. Grammar, spelling, and proofreading are excellent Spelling Use Australian spelling (e.g., hypothesize vs. hypothesise; behavior vs. behaviour) APA style Use serial commas[1] – they are part of APA style and are generally recommended by grammaticists. See explanatory video (1 min) > Figures Figures are well captioned Each Figure is referred to at least once within the main text Citations use correct APA style References use almost correct APA style Check and correct use of capitalisation[2] Learning features Excellent use of learning features Fantastic use of embedded in-text interwiki links to related chapters and/or Wikipedia articles Good use of image(s) No use of table(s) Excellent use of feature box(es) No use of quiz(zes) and/or reflection question(s) Very good use of case studies or examples Excellent use of interwiki links in the "See also" section Excellent use of external links in the "External links" section Include sources in parentheses Social contribution ~6 logged, useful, minor to moderate social contributions with direct links to evidence

Overall Overall, this is a good presentation Overview An opening slide with the title and sub-title is displayed and narrated — this helps to clearly convey the purpose of the presentation The sub-title does not match the book chapter sub-title Create an engaging introduction to hook audience interest Establish a context for the presentation (e.g., by using an example or explaining why it is important), to help the viewer understand Consider asking focus questions that lead to take-away messages. This will help to focus and discipline the presentation. Content Comments about the book chapter may also apply to this section The presentation addresses the topic The presentation makes good use of general time management theory ("popular theories") but lacks sufficient specific reference to psychological theory The presentation makes no use of relevant psychological research Ideally, make more explicit use of research Include citations to support claims The presentation makes excellent use of one or more examples or case studies or practical advice The presentation provides practical, easy to understand information Conclusion A Conclusion slide is presented with clear take-home message(s) The Conclusion only partly fitted within the time limit The Conclusion did not fit within the time limit Audio The audio is hard to follow because so much content is presented so quickly The presentation makes good use of narrated audio 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. Reasonably good intonation Audio recording quality was excellent The narrated content is well matched to the target topic (see content) but lacked synthesis of the best psychological theory and research about this topic Video Overall, visual display quality is excellent/very good/good/reasonably good/basic The presentation makes creative use of stock video and images The presentation makes effective/good/basic use of animated slides and/or stock video The presentation makes effective/good/basic use of text and image based slides The presentation makes basic use of text-based slides The font size is sufficiently large to make it easy to read The visual communication is supplemented in a basic way by images and/or diagrams The presentation is well produced using simple tools The visual content is well matched to the target topic (see content) but lacked synthesis of the best psychological theory and research about this topic Meta-data The chapter title and sub-title (or an abbreviation to fit within the 100 character limit) are used in the name of the presentation — this helps to clearly convey the purpose of the presentation The sub-title doesn't match the book chapter sub-title A written description of the presentation is provided Links to and from the book chapter are provided An inactive hyperlink to the book chapter is provided because the YouTube user account does not yet have access to advanced features Licensing Image sources and their copyright status are communicated A copyright license for the presentation is provided
