Edit suggestion

[edit source]

hello, I believe all our headings and subheadings are meant to be in sentence casing, hope this helps! U3173387 (discusscontribs) 14:38, 15 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Heading casing

Hi L.Mercer. 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

Overall

[edit source]
  1. Overall, this is a very good chapter. It makes very good use of psychological theory and some use of 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. There is an excellent acknowledgement of its use for the Conclusion section.
  3. Excellent use of academic, peer-reviewed citations to support claims
  4. 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 exceptionally well on other chapters and Wikipedia articles
  3. Insightful depth is provided about relevant theory(ies)
  4. Basic use of tables, figures, and/or lists to help convey key theoretical information
  5. Key citations are well used
  6. Excellent use of examples to illustrate theoretical concepts
  1. Reasonably good review of relevant research
  2. More detail about key studies would be ideal
  3. Basic critical thinking about relevant research is evident
  4. 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
  1. Very good integration between theory and research
  2. The chapter places more emphasis on theory than on research; strive for an integrated balance
  1. Very good summary and conclusion
  2. Add practical, take-home message(s)
  1. Written expression
    1. Overall, the quality of written expression is very good
    2. 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
    3. 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
  3. Grammar
    1. The grammar for some/many sentences could be improved (e.g., see the [grammar?] tags)
      1. Consider using a grammar checking tool
      2. Another option is to use a services provided by UC, such as Studiosity
      3. Another option is to share draft work with peers and ask for their assistance
    2. Check and correct use of possessive apostrophes (e.g., cats vs cat's vs cats')[2]
    3. Check and correct use of that vs. who
  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.
  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. Remove unnecessary capitalisation – more info
  6. APA style
    1. Use sentence casing for the names of disorders, therapies, theories, etc.
    2. Direct quotes need page numbers – even better, communicate about concepts in your own words
    3. Figures
      1. Reasonably well captioned
      2. Use this format for captions: Figure X. Descriptive caption goes here in sentence casing. See example.
      3. Each Figure is referred to at least once within the main text using APA style
    4. Citations use very good APA style (7th ed.). To improve:
      1. Use ampersand (&) inside parentheses and "and" outside parentheses
    5. References use very good/good APA style:
      1. Check and correct use of capitalisation[3]
      2. Include hyperlinked dois (fixed)
  1. Excellent use of learning features
  2. Excellent use of embedded in-text interwiki links to Wikipedia articles
  3. No use of embedded in-text links to related book chapters
  4. Basic use of figure(s)
  5. No use of table(s)
  6. Very good use of feature box(es)
  7. Excellent use of scenarios, case studies, or examples
  8. Reasonably good use of quiz(zes) and/or reflection question(s)
  9. Basic use of interwiki links in the "See also" section
    1. Also include links to related book chapters
    2. Add more links
  10. Very good use of external links in the "External links" section
    1. Add more links
  1. ~3 logged, useful, minor contributions with direct links to evidence
