Talk:Motivation and emotion/Book/2024/Aha! experience

Initial suggestions

@Oscar Tasman: Thanks for tackling this topic. Some initial suggestions:

• Check out other related chapters and see how you can build on, link to, and integrate with that work:
  • Category:Motivation and emotion/Book/Cognitive
  • Category:Motivation and emotion/Book/Curiosity
• Also search past book chapters for related topics
• For the topic development, consider:
  • What psychological theory(ies) can help to understand and explain this topic?
  • What is the main research in this area?
• Let me know if I can do anything else to support the development of this chapter.

Film Suggestions

@Oscar Tasman You could add in some examples in film that depict Aha! moments (either being experienced by the character or as the viewer). Some of my favourites are:

1. Momento (2000)
2. Primal Fear (1996)
3. Inception (2010)
4. The Usual Suspects (1995)
5. Scary Movie (2000)

Image size

Hey @Oscar Tasman,

Just an aesthetic edit to think about is changing the size of your 'figure 1" so that it fits within the confines of the feature box for a better visual display! You can size down by clicking on the image, going to advanced settings and selecting 'custom' to change its proportions. Best of luck!

Marks are available via UCLearn. Marks are based on the latest version before the due date.

1. Title The title and sub-title are correctly worded and formatted 2. Headings Basic, 1-level heading structure – could benefit from further development, perhaps using a 2-level structure Adopt closer alignment between sub-title, focus questions, and top-level headings Aim for 3 to 6 top-level headings between the Overview and Conclusion, with up to a similar number of sub-headings for large sections 3. Overview Basic A scenario or case study is presented in a feature box with an image at the start of this section A brief, evocative description of the problem/topic is provided Move the description out of the feature box Present focus questions in a feature box at the end of this section 4. Key points Partial development of key points for some sections Insufficient use of citations Strive for an integrated balance of the best psychological theory and research about this topic, with practical examples It is unclear whether the best available psychological theory and research has been consulted in the preparation of this plan Conclusion (the most important section) hasn't been developed 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?) 5. Figure Excellent - One or more relevant figure(s) presented, captioned, and cited The figure caption(s) could better explain how the image connects to key points being made in the main text Figure(s) are cited at least once in the main text 6. Learning feature Include in-text interwiki links for the first mention of key terms to relevant Wikipedia articles and/or to other relevant book chapters (see Tutorial 2) Promising use of one or more scenarios/examples/case studies Consider including more examples/case studies, quiz question(s), table(s) etc. 7. References OK Are there any systematic reviews about this topic? All references need to be cited in the text Only include references which have been accessed and read Check and correct APA referencing style: capitalisation italicisation doi formatting page numbers should be separated by an en-dash (–) rather than a hyphen (-) 8.

Consistency of aha! moment

Hi @Oscar Tasman,

I've made some edits/suggestions to improve the readability.

Something you could look into is consistency of "aha moment' v 'aha! moment'. I'm not sure which is correct, but suspect it's aha! moment based on the topic heading.

Overall Overall, this is a very good chapter. It makes very good use of psychological theory and research to address a real-world phenomenon or problem. Very good use of academic, peer-reviewed citations to support claims For additional feedback, see the following comments and these copyedits Overview Well developed The Overview is overly long Engages reader via a case study or scenario in a feature box with a relevant image Clearly explains the psychological problem or phenomenon The focus questions are excellent (clear and relevant) Theory An excellent range of relevant theories are selected, described, and explained Builds exceptionally well on other chapters and Wikipedia articles Insightful depth is provided about relevant theory(ies) Effective use of tables, figures, and/or lists to help clearly convey key theoretical information Key citations are well used Very good use of examples to illustrate theoretical concepts Research Excellent review of relevant research Good 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 considering the strength of relationships acknowledging limitations pointing out critiques/counterarguments suggesting specific directions for future research Integration Excellent integration between theory and research Conclusion Excellent summary and conclusion Key points are well summarised Add practical, take-home message(s) Style Written expression Overall, the quality of written expression is very good Layout The chapter structure is underdeveloped Avoid having sub-headings for the Overview and Conclusion Avoid having sections with 1 sub-heading – use 0 or 2+ sub-headings Grammar The grammar for many sentences could be improved (e.g., see the tags) Consider using a grammar checking tool Another option is to use a services provided by UC, such as Studiosity Another option is to share draft work with peers and ask for their assistance Figures Very well captioned Use this format for captions: Figure X. Descriptive caption goes here in sentence casing. See example. Each Figure is referred to at least once within the main text using APA style Citations use excellent APA style (7th ed.) References use good APA style: Check and correct use of capitalisation[1] Check and correct use of italicisation Separate page numbers using an en-dash (–) rather than a hyphen (-) Provide the full titles of journals Learning features Excellent use of learning features Excellent use of embedded in-text interwiki links to Wikipedia articles 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. Excellent use of figure(s) No use of table(s) Excellent use of feature box(es) Excellent use of scenarios, case studies, or examples Good use of quiz(zes) and/or reflection question(s) Excellent use of interwiki links in the "See also" section Excellent use of external links in the "External links" section Social contribution ~8 logged, useful contributions with direct links to evidence
