what are the two types of motor skills
Gross Motor Skills
Fine Motor Skills
Explain gross motor skills
Large muscle groups, place less emphasis on precision and more on force and power
Explain fine motor skills
Smaller muscles for precision movements
What are the three types of movement (movement continuity) and explain
Discrete motor skills-Clear beginning and end
Continuous motor skills- no definite beginning or end e.g running
Serial motor skills- several discrete skills preformed in sequence e.g gymnast floor routine
What classifies an open skill
Environmental unpredictability -weather, crowd…
externally paced-defenders…
inter trial variability-situation changes during game
what is a fundamental movement skill
Foundation skills that provide the basis for developing sport specific motor skills
How are fundamental movement skills classified
Stability-balance and control of body
Locomotor skills-enable us to move through space e.g running
Manipulative skills-involving the control of an object
What are the three stages of learning
Cognitive
Associative
Autonomous
Explain the cognitive phase
Large and regular mistakes made
inconsistent performance
attention will be on movement production
No error detection and correction abilities
Explain the associative phase
Less mistakes
refine technique/movement patterns
more consistent
Begins to associate skill with environment (more open)
detect some cause of error and strategies to eliminate
Explain the autonomous phase
essentially automatic
little to no errors
consistent execution in variety of environments
focus directed into tactics
can detect and correct errors performance variables
what are the two types of practices
Distributed
Massed
Distributed
more time is given between task/skill
e.g two mins of shooting practice at start and end of practice
best results
Massed
more time spent on skills less rest
e.g 4mins shooting at start of practice
what are the types of practice variability
Blocked-repetition of same skills
Serial-different skills rehearsed in fixed predictable sequence
Random
Random- the varied sequencing of different motor skills-completely random
what is intrinsic feedback
feedback gathered from own senses including
Visual
Auditory
Proprioception (how action feels)
Touch
what is augmented feedback
feedback from an external source e.g coach or video analysis, heart rate, wattage
what is knowledge of results
specific feedback about the outcomes of task e.g scored a goal
what is knowledge of performance
Feedback concerning the characteristics of performing a task
e.g left elbow not pointing towards the target
what is frequency of feedback
