This template provides tips for the topic development exercise. Gradually remove these suggestions as the chapter develops. Also consult the book chapter guidelines.

Overview
Imagine ... a scenario or case study which illustrates the problem and engages reader interest. Consider including an image (see Figure 1). The scenario could be presented in a feature box.

The Overview is typically 180 to 330 words.

Focus questions:

Main headings

 * Aim for three to six main headings between the Overview and Conclusion
 * Sub-headings can also be used, but avoid having sections with only one sub-heading

Key points

 * Provide at least 3 bullet-points per heading, including for the Overview and Conclusion
 * Include key citations

Learning features

 * Interactive learning features bring online book chapters to life and can be embedded throughout the chapter.

Case studies

 * Case studies describe real-world examples of concepts in action.
 * Case studies can be real or fictional.
 * A case study could be split into multiple sections throughout a chapter to illustrate different theories or stages.
 * It is often helpful to present case studies using feature boxes.

Feature boxes

 * Important content can be highlighted in a feature box. But don't overuse feature boxes, otherwise they lose their effect. There are several ways of creating boxes. Recommended: Pretty boxes).
 * Consider using feature boxes for:
 * Focus questions
 * Case studies or examples
 * Quiz questions
 * Take-home messages

A very simple box can be created by using a space at the start of the line


 * Feature box example
 * Shaded background
 * Coloured border
 * Change the theme number for different colours

Figures



 * Use figures to illustrate concepts, add interest, and to serve as examples
 * Figures can show photos, diagrams, graphs, etcetera
 * Figures can be embedded throughout the chapter, including the Overview section
 * Figures should be captioned (using Figure #. and a description). Captions explain the relevance of the image to the text/
 * Wikimedia Commons provides a library of embeddable images
 * Images can also be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons if they are openly licensed
 * Refer to each figure at least once in the main text (e.g., see Figure 2)

Links

 * When key words are introduced, use interwiki links
 * These links can go to:
 * Wikipedia (e.g., Sigmund Freud wrote about (e.g., dreams) or
 * Related book chapters (e.g., if your are struggling, you might be interested to read the chapter about writer's block)

Tables

 * Use tables to organise and summarise information
 * As with figures, tables should be captioned (e.g., see Table 1)
 * Refer to each table at least once in the main text (e.g., see Table 1)
 * Example 3 x 3 tables which could be adapted

Table 1. Descriptive Caption Which Explains The Table and its Relevant to the Text - Johari Window Model

Quizzes

 * Using one or two review questions per major section is usually better than a long quiz at the end
 * Quiz conceptual understanding, rather than trivia
 * Don't make quizzes too hard
 * Different types of quiz questions are possible; see Quiz

Conclusion

 * The Conclusion is arguably the most important section
 * The Conclusion is typically 150 to 330 words
 * What are the take-home messages likely to be?
 * It should be possible for someone to only read the Overview and the Conclusion and still get a good idea of the problem and what is known based on psychological science

Main headings

 * Aim for three to six main headings between the Overview and Conclusion
 * Sub-headings can also be used, but avoid having sections with only one sub-heading
