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

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

  1. The title and/or sub-title were not correctly worded and/or formatted (fixed)
  1. See earlier comment about Heading casing
  2. Messy heading structure – needs work (see Tutorial 2)
  3. Reads likely poorly developed and unacknowledged genAI content which would violate academic integrity
  4. Adopt closer alignment between the sub-title, focus questions, and top-level headings
  1. No scenario
  2. Reads likely poorly developed and unacknowledged genAI content which would violate academic integrity
  3. No focus questions
  1. Reads likely poorly developed and unacknowledged genAI content. If so, it needs to be acknowledged as such in the edit summaries, otherwise it violates academic integrity.
  2. Strive for an integrated balance of the best psychological theory and research about this topic, with practical examples
  3. It is unclear whether the best available psychological theory and research has been consulted in the preparation of this plan
  4. Conclusion (the most important section):
    1. Hasn't been developed
    2. 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?)
  1. Uploaded figures violated copyright
  2. It seems likely that Tutorial 02 hasn't been completed
  1. 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)
  2. Consider use of one or more scenarios/examples/case studies
  3. Consider including one or more quiz question(s) about the take-home messages
  4. Also consider using one or more tables to summarise key information
  1. OK
  2. Are there any systematic reviews about this topic?
  3. Only cite sources which have you have accessed and read
  4. Check and correct APA referencing style:
    1. remove numbering
    2. add hanging indent
    3. alphabetical order
    4. include hyperlinked dois
  5. Remember that the goal is to identify and use the best academic theory and research about this topic
  1. See also
    1. OK
    2. Use bullet-points (see Tutorial 02)
    3. Use sentence casing
    4. Include source in brackets after link (e.g., (Wikipedia) or (Book chapter, year) for Wikiversity book chapters)
    5. Use alphabetical order
  2. External links
    1. OK
    2. Use bullet-points (see Tutorial 02)
    3. Use sentence casing
    4. Include source in brackets after link

Book chapter review and feedback

[edit source]

This chapter 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 to check for editing changes made whilst reviewing through the chapter. Chapter marks will be available via UCLearn along with social contribution marks and feedback. Keep an eye on Announcements.

Overall

[edit source]
  1. Overall, this is a promising but insufficient chapter, mainly because of the lack of critical review of relevant research.
  2. Well under the maximum word count, so there is room to expand
  3. For additional feedback, see the following comments and these copyedits
  1. Solid
  2. Engages reader via a case study or scenario in a feature box with an image
  3. A more engaging image could be used at the start. The diagram might be more useful later on
  4. Image size has been increased to make it easier to read
  5. Explains the problem or phenomenon
  6. What are the other developmental options besides generativity? Is is guaranteed/inevitable?
  7. Basic focus questions
  8. Some questions are not required to address the topic (e.g,. cultural variations)
  9. The focus questions could be more focused on the topic (e.g., how does generativity affect behaviour?)
  1. A reasonably good range of relevant theory/theories are selected, described, and explained
  2. Builds somewhat on previous, related chapters and/or Wikipedia articles
  3. Reasonably good depth is provided about relevant theory(ies)
  4. Effective use of tables, figures, and/or lists are to help clearly convey key theoretical information
  5. Key citations are well used
  6. Excellent use of examples to illustrate theoretical concepts
  1. Insufficient review of relevant research
  2. More detail about key studies would be ideal
  3. Any systematic reviews or meta-analyses in this area?
  4. Insufficient critical thinking about relevant research is evident
  5. 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
  1. Insufficient integration between theory and research
  2. The chapter places more emphasis on theory than on research
  1. Brief, insufficient as a cohesive summary of the best available psychological theory and research about the topic
  2. Clear take-home message(s)
  3. Add practical, take-home message(s)
  1. Written expression
    1. Overall, the quality of written expression is reasonably good
  2. Layout
    1. Include an introductory paragraph before branching into the sub-sections (see [Provide more detail] tags)
    2. Avoid having sections with 1 sub-heading – use 0 or 2+ sub-headings
    3. Use the default heading style (e.g., remove additional italics and/or bold)
  3. 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.
    2. Use Australian spelling (e.g., hypothesize vs. hypothesise; behavior vs. behaviour)
  4. 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. Figures
      1. Figures are very well captioned
      2. Refer to each Figure at least once within the main text (e.g., see Figure 1)
      3. Increase image sizes so they are easier to read
    3. Tables
      1. Table captions use APA style or wiki style
      2. Refer to each Table at least once within the main text (e.g., see Table 1)
    4. Citations use basic APA style (7th ed.).
    5. Some citations consist of an embedded hyperlink rather than APA style citation and listing in references
      1. List multiple citations in alphabetical order by first author surname
    6. References use good APA style:
      1. Check and correct use of italicisation
      2. Remove publisher location
  1. Excellent 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. Basic use of image(s)
  4. Very good use of table(s)
  5. Excellent use of feature box(es)
  6. Excellent use of case studies or examples
  7. Excellent use of quiz(zes) and/or reflection question(s)
  8. Basic use of interwiki links in the "See also" section
    1. Rename links per Tutorial 02
    2. Also include links to related book chapters
    3. Use sentence casing
    4. Use alphabetical order
    5. Include sources in parentheses after the link
  9. Basic use of external links in the "External links" section
    1. Use sentence casing
    2. Use alphabetical order
    3. Include sources in parentheses after the link
  1. No logged social contributions

Overall

[edit source]
  1. Overall, this is an insufficient presentation
  2. The presentation is under the maximum time limit (3 mins), so there was room for further development
  1. The 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
  2. The presentation has a basic introduction to engage audience interest
  3. A basic context for the presentation is established
  4. Consider asking focus questions that lead to take-away messages. This will help to focus and discipline the presentation.
  1. Comments about the book chapter may also apply to this section
  2. The presentation somewhat addresses the topic
  3. The presentation makes basic use of relevant psychological theory
  4. The presentation makes no use of relevant psychological research
  5. The presentation makes no use of citations to support claims
  6. The presentation makes basic use of one or more examples
  7. The presentation could be improved by making more use of examples or case studies
  8. The presentation could be improved by providing practical advice
  9. The presentation provides easy to understand information
  1. The conclusion provides a basic summary of the most relevant psychological theory and research about this topic
  1. The presentation makes basic use of narrated audio
  2. Audio communication is well paced
  3. Basic intonation
  4. The narration could benefit from further scripting and/or practice
  5. Audio recording quality was poor
  6. 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.
  7. The narrated content is well reasonably well matched to the target topic but lacked synthesis of the best psychological theory and research about this topic
  1. Overall, visual display quality is excellent/very good/good/reasonably good/basic
  2. The presentation makes basic use of text-based slides
  3. Some of the font size could be larger to make it easier to read
  4. Consider using a sans-serif typeface to make the text easier to read
  5. The amount of text presented per slide makes it easy to read and listen at the same time
  6. The visual communication could be improved by including some relevant images and/or diagrams
  7. The presentation is basically produced using simple tools
  8. The visual content is reasonably well matched to the target topic but lacked synthesis of the best psychological theory and research about this topic
  1. The video title does not match the chapter title and sub-title — this would help to clearly convey the purpose of the presentation and be more consistent
  2. Provide a written description of the presentation to help potential viewers decide whether or not to watch
  3. A link to the book chapter is not provided
  4. A link from the book chapter is provided
