PRINCIPLES OF
MOTOR LEARNING SKILLS MOTOR The ability to move the body in specific patterns in
SKILLS response to the
environmental circumstances associated with a particular physical activity LEARNING MOTOR SKILL Motor learning involves learning a skilled task and then practising with a goal in mind until the skill is executed automatically (Schmidt & Wrisberg 2007). For example, learning to play a song on the piano initially takes a lot of thought and practise before the task is automatic and executed skilfully. THE NINE PRINCIPLES OF LEARNING MOTOR SKILLS PRINCIPLE OF INTEREST a student's attitude toward learning a skill determines for the most part the amount and kind of learning that takes place. PRINCIPLE OF practicing the motor skill correctly PRACTICE is essential for learning to take place. PRINCIPLE OF DISTRIBUTED PRACTICE IN GENERAL SHORT PERIODS OF INTENSE PRACTICE WILL RESULT IN MORE LEARNING THAN LONGER, MASSED PRACTICE SESSIONS. PRINCIPLE OF SKILL SPECIFICITY a student's ability to perform one motor skill effectively is independent of his/her ability to perform other motor skills. RINCIPLE OF WHOLE-PART LEARNIN THE COMPLEXITY OF THE SKILL TO BE LEARNED AND THE LEANER'S ABILITY DETERMINE WHETHER IT IS MORE EFFICIENT TO TEACH THE WHOLE SKILL OR BREAK THE SKILL INTO COMPONENT PARTS. PRINCIPLE OF TRANSFER THE MORE INDENTICAL TWO TASKS ARE THE GREATER THE POSSIBILITY THAT POSITIVE TRANSFER WILL OCCUR. PRACTICE CONDITIONS SHOULD MATCH THE CONDITIONS IN WHICH THE MOTOR SKILL IS GOING TO BE USED. PRINCIPLE OF SKILL IMPROVEMENT the development of motor skills progresses along a continuum from least mature to most mature. The rate of progression and the amount of progress within an individual depends upon the interaction of nature and nurture. PRINCIPLE OF FEEDBACK internal and external sources of information about motor performance is essential for learning to take place. PRINCIPLE OF VARIABLE PRACTICE. BLOCK PRACTICE AIDS IN PERFORMANCE WHILE VARIABLE PRACTICE AIDS IN LEARNING. VARIABLE PRACTICE CAUSES AN INCREASE IN ATTENTION. THANK YOU
