Talk:Motivation and emotion/Book/2024/Intrinsic motivation and creativity

Suggestions

Hey, great job so far. Your chapter is well-structured, starting with an accessible introduction and smoothly transitioning into the scientific discussion on intrinsic motivation and creativity. To further enhance the depth and insightfulness of your work, consider incorporating more recent studies and citations, especially those that explore how intrinsic motivation fosters creativity in various contexts. You could include more practical examples and techniques for enhancing intrinsic motivation, which would also increase the practical value for readers looking to apply these concepts in real-world scenarios. Well done! --Princess Brutus (discuss • contribs) 08:08, 6 October 2024 (UTC)

Heading casing

Hi Trodrickk. 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 -- Jtneill - Talk - c 03:31, 18 August 2024 (UTC)

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

1. Title The title is correctly worded and formatted 2. Headings See earlier comment about Heading casing Under-developed, 1-level heading structure – develop further, perhaps using a 2-level structure for larger section(s) 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 Very good - Scenario, image, evocative description of the problem/topic, relevant psychological theory/research, and focus questions A brief, evocative description of the problem/topic is provided Focus questions could be improved by: Unpacking the first question - this is the core topic The second question is less relevant (not part of the topic) - there are other chapters that could be linked to address this question in-depth, although a brief explanation would be useful The third question is a bit vague/general - make sure the focus questions directly relate to the sub-title for the chapter 4. Key points Promising development of key points for each section, with relevant citations Good balance of theory and research Conclusion (the most important section): Hasn't been developed 5. Figure Excellent - A relevant figure is presented, captioned, and cited 6. Learning feature One use of in-text interwiki links for the first mention of key terms to relevant Wikipedia articles and/or to other relevant book chapters Promising use of example(s)/case study(ies) Consider including more examples/case studies, quiz question(s), table(s) etc. 7. References Very good Good to see identification of a relevant meta-analysis For APA referencing style, check and correct: capitalisation italicisation 8. Resources See also Not developed External links Not developed I get the sense that you may have not have completed Tutorial 2 9. User page Good Use headings as shown in Tutorial 02 Excellent description about self provided 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. Link provided to book chapter 10. Social contribution None summarised on user page with direct link(s) to evidence – this was covered in Tutorial 03. Looking ahead to the book chapter submission, see how to earn marks for social contributions.

Suggestions

For factors affecting intrinsic motivation and creativity, maybe flesh out why controlling managerial styles negatively influence it- such as promoting effort vs. the result, also evaluation and competition may be related. This may also be applied to other environments. You could also look into the effect of external events such as COVID, social media etc in terms of if it is helpful vs unhelpful to creativity.

Hope this was a useful brainstorm

Book chapter review and feedback

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 Overall, this is a good to very good chapter that uses psychological theory and research to address a real-world phenomenon or problem. The main issue is that is well over the maximum word count. Very good use of academic, peer-reviewed citations to support claims Well over the maximum word count. The content beyond 4,000 words (including the Conclusion) has been ignored for marking purposes. This chapter "beats around the bush" (i.e., too much single-concept description/preamble) before starting to directly tackle the target topic For additional feedback, see the following comments and these copyedits Overview Solid Engages reader via a case study or scenario in a feature box with a relevant image Briefly explains the problem or phenomenon Probably overly focused on questions rather than describing the phenomenon Basic focus questions Given the various questions in the Overview, the focus questions are surprisingly basic/simplistic and don't really unpack the topic (the sub-title) Theory A very good range of relevant theories are selected, described, and explained There is too much background explanation of IM and C as stand-alone constructs; concentrate on their relationship Builds reasonably well on related chapters and/or Wikipedia articles; could do this more to reduce overall word count Very good depth is provided about relevant theory(ies) Use tables, figures, and/or lists are to help convey key theoretical information Key citations are well used Reasonably good use of examples to illustrate theoretical concepts Research Very good review of relevant research More detail about key studies would be ideal Consider expanding the detail about key systematic reviews or meta-analyses in this area Note that in some places there is insufficient use of academic, peer-reviewed citations (e.g., see the tags) Very 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 pointing out critiques/counterarguments suggesting specific directions for future research Integration Very good integration between theory and research Conclusion Basic summary and conclusion Address the focus questions Add practical, take-home message(s) Style Written expression Overall, the quality of written expression is very good Use 3rd person perspective (e.g., "it") rather than 1st (e.g., "we") or 2nd person (e.g., "you") perspective[1] in the main text, although 1st or 2nd person perspective can work well for case studies or feature boxes Avoid overly emotive language (e.g,. incredibly) in science-based communication Layout Include an introductory paragraph before branching into the sub-sections (see tags) Avoid having sections with 1 sub-heading – use 0 or 2+ sub-headings See earlier comments about heading casing Grammar The grammar for some sentences could be improved (e.g., see the tags) Spelling Use Australian spelling (e.g., hypothesize vs. hypothesise; behavior vs. behaviour) APA style Use double (not single) quotation marks "to introduce a word or phrase used as an ironic comment, as slang, or as an invented or coined expression" (APA 7th ed., 2020, p. 159) Express numbers < 10 using words (e.g., two) and >= 10 and over using numerals (e.g., 99) Figures Figures are reasonably well captioned Each Figure is referred to at least once within the main text Citations use excellent APA style (7th ed.) References use basic APA style: Check and correct use of capitalisation[2] Check and correct use of italicisation Separate page numbers using an en-dash (–) rather than a hyphen (-) Learning features Reasonably good use of learning features 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. Basic use of image(s) No use of table(s) Basic use of feature box(es) Basic use of case studies or examples Very good use of quiz(zes) and/or reflection question(s) Basic use of interwiki links in the "See also" section Also include links to related Wikipedia articles Use sentence casing Use alphabetical order Basic use of external links in the "External links" section Use sentence casing Use alphabetical order Include sources in parentheses after the link (do not hyperlink the sources) Include at least 3 resources Social contribution ~5 logged, useful mostly moderate social contributions with direct links to evidence

Overall Overall, this is a basic presentation Overview The opening slide conveys the purpose of the presentation in a basic way The title and sub-title are displayed but only roughly narrated Create an engaging introduction to hook audience interest Establish a context for the presentation such as through an example Consider asking focus questions to help focus and discipline the presentation Content Comments about the book chapter may also apply to this section The presentation somewhat addresses address the topic There is too much emphasis on background theory The presentation makes basic use of relevant psychological theory There is too much focus on general motivation theory and too little on the relationship between IM and creativity which is only addressed in the last 30 seconds The presentation makes basic use of relevant psychological research The presentation makes good use of citations to support claims The presentation makes insufficient use of examples The presentation could be improved by providing practical advice The presentation provides easy to understand information Conclusion Provide a conclusion slide which summarises the most relevant psychological theory and research about this topic, with take-home messages for each focus question Audio The audio is easy to follow The presentation makes basic use of narrated audio Audio communication is reasonably well-paced Good intonation The narration is well practiced and/or performed Audio recording quality was excellent The narrated content is somewhat matched to the target topic The narrated content lacked synthesis of the best psychological theory and research about this topic Video Overall, visual display quality is reasonably good The presentation makes reasonably good use of text and image based slides The font size is sufficiently large to make it reasonably easy to read The amount of text presented per slide could be reduced to make it easier to read and listen at the same time The visual communication is supplemented in a basic way by relevant images and/or diagrams The presentation is well produced using simple tools Hide the audio icon The visual content is reasonably well matched to the target topic Meta-data The correct title is used, but the sub-title (or a shortened version of it) is not used, as the name of the presentation. This would help to convey the purpose of the presentation and be consistent. A reasonably good written description of the presentation is provided. Consider expanding. Good use of time codes Links to and from the book chapter are provided Licensing Image sources and their copyright status are not clearly indicated A copyright license for the presentation is in the description but not in the license field
