Skills
State the 4 types of skills
motor, cognitive, perceptual motor and perceptual
State how a hard coach that provides a ton of negative feedback can impact the performers' rate of learning
decrease the rate of learning
State, in order, the 3 phases of learning
cognitive, associative, autonomous
State the type of learning curve that shows rapid improvements at the start but less improvements later on
skill = ability + technique
Describe and provide an example of a motor skill
Distinguish between learning and performance
learning - a permanent change in performance over time
performance - a temporary occurrence
Describe and provide an example of the associative stage of learning
knows how the movement should look but still practicing how to do it; some errors but getting more consistent.
ex: starting to coordinate arms and leg when swimming but still using more effort than needed and developing strength
Describe the characteristics of a positive acceleration learning curve
shows small improvements at the start of practice but as time goes on, large rapid improvements begin
Distinguish between Fleishman's physical abilities and perceptual motor abilities.
physical abilities - main focus is gross body movements
perceptual motor abilities- movements that combine coordination and incorporate responses to the environment
Distinguish between skill and ability
Skills - consistent production of goal-orientated movements
Ability: general trait/characteristic you are born with
State three types of transfer of learning
positive, negative, zero, skill to skill, practice to performance, ability to skill, principles to skill, bilateral
cognitive - coach demonstrates and performer attempts - unable to make most baskets
associative - practicing many trials of free throws, makes some
autonomous - consistently makes free throws and knows when the technique was used incorrectly
explain 2 reasons for a plateau in a learning curve
motivation - the loss of motivation can cause someone not to improve because they are not trying or making an effort to get better
injury - an injury can prevent an increase in performance because they are unable to practice or compete
- understands the run up technique but either leaps too early or too late
- understands how to fold during the jump but is not able to make it happen
- jumps show increases in performance
motor - dribbling in soccer
perceptual motor - dribbling around defense in soccer
cognitive - adding up points in a match
perceptual - reading the green in golf
Provide an example of 4 types of transfer of learning
skill to skill - throwing javelin to throwing a baseball
principle to skill - reading about fluid dynamics to swimming
bilateral - practicing throwing with the left to right hand
etc
cognitive - inconsistent, inaccurate, choppy/not fluid
autonomous - consistent, accurate, fluid in movements
Draw an example of a positive acceleration curve
x axis - practice/time
y axis - performance
Explain one factor that can affect the rate of learning
factor chosen NEEDS to be clearly linked to if it increases/decreases learning and WHY
