You have done an excellent job surveying the broad literature regarding the different theories of terrorism. However, perhaps you could also explore the role of gender in influencing extremist motivations. More specifically, what is the empirical relationship between masculine gender norms and terrorist behaviour, as men commit the vast majority of terrorist acts? It would help if you considered incorporating social scientific theories that seek to answer this question in your book chapter, along with suggestions about how to monitor and prevent violent extremism in men. Here's a useful resource: Haider, S. H. (2016). The shooting in Orlando, terrorism or toxic masculinity (or both?). Men And Masculinities, 19(5), (pp. 555–565.). https://doi.org/10.1177/1097184x16664952 --MT200107 (discuss • contribs) 07:34, 7 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

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.
Promising development of key points for each section, with relevant citations
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, with practical examples
Conclusion (the most important section):
Underway
What might the take-home, practical messages be? (What are the answer(s) to the question(s) in the sub-title and/or focus questions?)

The accompanying multimedia presentation has been marked according to the marking criteria. Marks are available via the unit's UCLearn site.

If you would like further clarification about the marking or feedback, contact the unit convener.
This presentation could be improved by displaying and narrating a slide with the same title and sub-title as the book chapter to help the viewer understand the purpose of the presentation
Very engaging introduction to hook audience interest
A context for the topic is clearly established through an example
Consider asking focus questions that lead to take-away messages. This will help to focus and discipline the presentation.
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
Audio recording quality was OK but rather quiet with some background drone. Review microphone set-up to achieve higher recording quality.
The narrated content is well matched to the target topic (see content) (except lack of research)
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
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

Overall, this is an excellent chapter. It successfully uses psychological theory and research to address a practical, real-world phenomenon or problem.
