social bonding idea

[edit source]

You could possibly talk about Indigenous "yarning" for social bonding if you wish. This could be somewhere to start: https://www.unsw.edu.au/canberra/about-us/equity-diversity-inclusion/unsw-canberra-community-circle Chris Beaven (discusscontribs) 08:10, 15 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Yes, that could be a good way to incorporate a cultural reference that is relevant here in Australia.
Generally, I think the structure is clear and the way you've introduced and explored this topic is relatable and useful. I especially enjoyed the lift scenario as I feel many of us have been here. U3081293 (discusscontribs) 12:46, 15 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Using quizzes and images

[edit source]

Hi there, I've read through your chapter and it looks like you have some great ideas! You include many different types of humour and psychological theories in your chapter, so I thought that using a quiz towards the end might be a fun way for readers to consolidate this knowledge and make sure they can distinguish between the multiple theories discussed. If you need a template for a quiz, you can look at the edit source page of my chapter and use that if you want to. The use of images throughout the sections of your chapter could also be a useful addition, as it adds some more colour and excitement for the reader to look at as they go through your chapter. Great work so far! --U3236447 (discusscontribs) 03:33, 2 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

Heading casing

[edit source]
Hi Lwinter1. 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

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 very good chapter. It makes very good use of psychological theory and research to address a real-world phenomenon or problem.
  2. I suspect that some of this chapter is based on unacknowledged use of genAI output; if so, it violates academic integrity principles
  3. Very good use of academic, peer-reviewed citations to support claims
  4. In some places, better use could be made of academic, peer-reviewed citations (e.g., see the [factual?] tags)
  5. Move embedded external links to academic articles into the References section, include links as dois, and provide APA style citation to the article in the main body text
  6. For additional feedback, see the following comments and these copyedits
  1. Well developed
  2. Engages reader via a case study or scenario in a feature box with a relevant image
  3. Clearly explains the psychological problem or phenomenon
  4. The focus questions are clear and relevant
  1. An excellent range of relevant theories are selected, described, and explained
  2. Builds effectively on other chapters and/or Wikipedia articles
  3. Very good depth is provided about relevant theory(ies)
  4. Some use of tables, figures, and/or lists to help convey key theoretical information
  5. Key citations are well used
  6. In some places, there is insufficient use of academic, peer-reviewed citations (e.g., see the [factual?] tags)
  7. Very good use of examples to illustrate theoretical concepts
  1. Very good review of relevant research
  2. More detail about key studies would be ideal
  3. In some places, there is insufficient use of academic, peer-reviewed citations (e.g., see the [factual?] tags)
  4. Very good 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. considering the strength of relationships
    3. acknowledging limitations
    4. pointing out critiques/counterarguments
    5. suggesting specific directions for future research
  6. Some claims lack sufficient citation (e.g., see the [factual?] tags)
  1. Very good integration between theory and research
  1. Reasonably good summary and conclusion
  2. Reads like generic genAI output; write more compellingly in your own words
  3. Remind the reader about the importance of the problem or phenomenon of interest
  4. Address the focus questions
  5. Add practical, take-home message(s)
  1. Written expression
    1. Overall, the quality of written expression is very good
    2. Use active (e.g., "this chapter explores") rather than passive voice (e.g., "this chapter has explored" or "this chapter will explore") [1][2]
    3. Avoid one sentence paragraphs. Communicate one idea per paragraph using three to five sentences.
    4. Use 3rd person perspective (e.g., "it") rather than 1st (e.g., "we") or 2nd person (e.g., "you") perspective[3] in the main text, although 1st or 2nd person perspective can work well for case studies or feature boxes
    5. Avoid directional referencing (e.g., "As previously mentioned"). Instead:
      1. it is, most often, not needed at all, or
      2. use section linking
  2. Layout
    1. The chapter is well structured, with major sections using sub-sections
    2. Include an introductory paragraph before branching into the sub-sections (see [Provide more detail] tags)
  3. Grammar
    1. Check and make correct use of commas (sometimes they were missing)
    2. Check and correct use of possessive apostrophes (e.g., cats vs cat's vs cats')[4]
    3. The grammar for some sentences could be improved (e.g., see the [grammar?] tags)
    4. Abbreviations
      1. Check and correct use of abbreviations (such as e.g., i.e., etc.)
  4. 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; humor vs. humour)
  5. 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. Very well/Well/Reasonably well captioned
      2. Briefly captioned; provide more detail to help connect the figure to the text
      3. Add captions
      4. Use this format for captions: Figure X. Descriptive caption goes here in sentence casing. See example.
      5. Each Figure is referred to at least once within the main text using APA style
      6. Each Figure is referred to at least once within the main text. Refer to each Figure using APA style (e.g., "(see Figure 1)"; do not use bold, italics, check and correct capitalisation).
      7. Refer to each Figure at least once within the main text (e.g., "(see Figure 1)")
      8. Some image uploads were removed because of a lack of sufficient/appropriate copyright information
      9. Numbering needs correcting
      10. Increase some image sizes to make them easier to read
    3. Tables
      1. Use APA style for captions (see example)
      2. Refer to each Table at least once within the main text (e.g., see Table 1)
    4. Citations use very good APA style (7th ed.)
      1. Move embedded links to peer reviewed sources into the References as APA style citations with hyperlinked dois
    5. References use very good APA style:
      1. Check and correct use of italicisation
      2. Use the simplest URLs (i.e., the dois). Note that links like this https://academic.oup.com/jcr/article-abstract/41/5/1153/2962088?redirectedFrom=PDF&casa_token=B2CxMOfj8-cAAAAA:Jazao2IbDC7LR7xdyRnkAr0GWDSvzJMLs20ZNjd3Qy_zwtT7gOn6diGOPoXhgtKwTEhoR0Pa3BmyYg, if they are to be used, should be abbreviated at least to https://academic.oup.com/jcr/article-abstract/41/5/1153/2962088
  1. Excellent use of learning features
  2. Basic 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.

  5. Reasonably good use of feature box(es)
  6. Reasonably good use of scenarios, case studies, or examples
