“This term describes how skills can be classified by the environment and by the movement precision required.”

classification of motor skills

Given by the following equation - Force x Time

Impulse

100

This instructional style has the coach making all decisions

direct coaching approach

100

Spacing practice with breaks is called this

distributed practice

200

This set of factors – individual, task, and environmental – influences movement skill performance.

constraints?

200

Newton's 1st Law

Inertia - an object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless acted upon by an external, unbalanced force 

200

This method emphasizes manipulating constraints to guide learning

constraints-based approach

200

Feedback provided after the performance.

terminal feedback

300

This kind of analysis breaks down movement into phases to improve performance.

The three learning phases in motor skill development

cognitive, associative, and autonomous stages

Feedback derived from within the athlete

Intrinsic Feedback

Type of movement skill that involves large muscle groups.

Gross Motor Skill

400

This principle describes how the body maximises force production

Summation of Momentum

This external factor includes influences like peers and parents

sociocultural factors

In the autonomous stage, performance is mostly this
