Heading casing

[edit source]
Hi Gabriel Geld. 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

    1. Overall, the quality of written expression is very good
    2. Develop the bullet point statements into full sentences and paragraphs
    3. 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
    4. "People" is often a better term than "individuals"
  2. Layout
