Activities such as playing soccer or basketball, is considered this type of skill?
Motor development is influenced by these three components: Individual, task, and environment
What is the Dynamic Systems Theory?
This type of feedback is used while the person is performing a skill.
What is knowledge of Performance?
This type of practice requires low motor problem-solving while repeating same motor skill?
What is blocked practice?
Principle that states that beginners will freeze portions of their full range of motion when learning a new skill.
What is degrees of freedom?
A skill that maintains your balance
What is a stabilization skill?

What is Explicit Learning
Utilizing psychological techniques to promote motor skill improvement
What is mental practice?
In this stage of motor development, learners practice new movements, are prone to errors, and use inefficient/inconsistent movements
What is cognitive stage/skill acquisition stage?
Around 12 months of age infants should be able to perform this skill
