Excellent – key points are well developed for each section, with relevant citations
The main challenge is likely to be synthesising this chapter down to the maximum word count, since the topic development plan is basically already at that point. So, you'll need to very judicious in your choice of what to include (what is essential to address the focus questions using the best psychological science?) and what is interesting but not essential (to be left out)
Good balance of theory and research
Use APA style 7th edition for citations with three or more authors (i.e., FirstAuthor et al., year)
Direct quotes need page numbers (APA style) – even better, write in your own words
Conclusion (the most important section):
Well 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?)
Consider linking to your eportfolio page and/or any other professional online profile or resume such as LinkedIn. This is not required, but it can be useful to interlink your professional networks.

@Stluciamolly: For APA 7th ed. style when a source has three or more authors, just cite the first author then et al. (e.g., instead of Smith, Weston, and Wong (1997), cite as Smith et al. (1997))

@Stluciamolly: I am wandering past your draft which looks well advanced. But I noticed already over the word count. So, you're going to have to focus/streamline the chapter. I suggest the litmus test to apply to everything is does it help answer the three questions in the sub-title. I notice there are four focus questions, but I think this could be simplified to three questions were are expanded versions of the three questions in the sub-title. Then scrutinise and organise the content around using theory and research to answer each of these questions. Hope that helps. Sincerely, James -- Jtneill - Talk - c10:58, 30 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

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
Spelling
Use Australian spelling (e.g., hypothesize vs. hypothesise; behavior vs. behaviour)
Proofreading
More proofreading is needed (e.g., fix punctuation and typographical errors) to bring the quality of written expression closer to a professional standard
APA style
Express numbers < 10 using words (e.g., two) and >= 10 and over using numerals (e.g., 99)
Figures
Very well captioned
Each Figure is referred to at least once within the main text using APA style
Tables
Table captions use APA style or wiki style
Each Table is referred to at least once within the main text using APA style
Citations use very good APA style (7th ed.). To improve:
If there are three or more authors, cite the first author followed by et al., then year. For example, either:
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.
Reasonably good use of figure(s)
Good use of table(s)
Very good use of feature box(es)
Excellent use of scenarios, case studies, or examples
Very good use of quiz(zes) and/or reflection question(s)
Not counted for marking purposes due to being over the maximum word count
