Motor Everything
True: How you make people feel really matters!
Spatial = what's where in the moving environment
Which concept of directional development states that humans progress from gross, immature movements to more precise, well-controlled intentional movements?
A) Cepholocaudal
B) Proximodistal
C) Differentiation
D) Integration
*Integration: Over time and as a result of practice humans become more capable of controlling the neuromuscular system to produce precise, complicated movement.
According to Gallahue's Model, what phase of motor development were Kenneth, Savannah and Jazzy in?
A) Phase 1: Reflexive
B) Phase 2: Rudimentary
C) Phase 3: Fundamental
D) Phase 4: Specialization
B) Phase 2: Rudimentary
Walking to Age 4 - basic functional movement, reflex inhibition, greater motor control
Which of these tasks is developmentally appropriate?
A) A second grader bounce passing a playground ball to a partner standing six feet away.
B) A fourth grade PE class running the timed mile during the second week of school.
C) Participants in a boot camp group exercise class having a weighted lunge relay.
D) Asking FW325 students to master content from a lengthy reading assignment.
A) A second grader bounce passing a playground ball to a partner standing six feet away.
Which stress theory illustrates how some people perform best when they're under pressure?
A) Flow
B) Inverted U
C) Drive
D) Dynamic Systems
When developing a skill assessment, how many "key criteria" should you include?
A) No less than three.
B) No more than five.
C) It depends on the movement and the learner.
D) All of the above.
D) All of the above.
Information that helps performers learn about the proficiency with which they move is the definition of ____________________.
The number one - top priority - of ALL teachers, trainers, therapists and coaches must be the _______________ and ________________ safety of participants.
Far Transfer - drill/practice is relevant, but more distantly related.
According to research, emphasis on PROCESS is more effective when teaching someone a new motor skill. PRODUCT emphasis is detrimental to motor LEARNING but can be beneficial in motor CONTROL & motor PERFORMANCE.
What is TIE and where does it come from?
An acronym associated with Dynamic Systems Theory that urges practitioners to focus on three things; Tasks, Individual Differences & Environoment
The Speed/Accuracy Trade-Off states that practicing a skill at full speed decreases the quality of the movement. Beginners need to focus on process before product.
static vs dynamic, speed, distance, space, time, tempo, equipment, cues, expectations, environment
Why were the preschoolers at the videos unable to properly demonstrate push ups and sit ups?
Their disproportionate head size, underdeveloped core stability and limited upper body strength made it developmentally inappropriate for them.
Maturation: functional changes (skill & capability)
2) Taking what a person learns through skill practice and implementing the same skill in a real-world setting.
GROWTH mindset proposes that capability is a greater predictor of success and - through practice and effort - a person can surpass his/her ABILITY by maximizing his/her CAPABILITY.
This applies to motor learning because we have to help our clients, players, students and patients understand that ability isn't everything!
Example: Meet with a client, determine goals, create a "SMART" plan for how to get from here to there.
Give an example of positive, specific, individual feedback.
"Nice job keeping your pinkies together when you received that low pass, Suzie!"
"Way to turn your back to the defender as you're dribbling, Billy!"
