L16C: Challenge Framework Flashcards

1
Q

What is the Challenege Framework?

A

A conceptual framework for tieing together
practice principles to optimize motor learning

Goal is to find a zone outside your maintenance zone where learning can be optimized

Q

Performance does not always equate to
learning & can mislead about what’s acquired

Q

Empirical research examples showing a disconnect
between performance and learning.

What challeneging practice conditions require learners to be active problem solvers?

A
  • Contextual interference
  • Variability of practice
  • Physical guidance
  • Augmented feedback guidance

What’s good for learning is not necessarily what looks good in practice

Q

What type of practice is tied to the
CHALLENGE-FRAMEWORK?

A

Relates to ideas of “Deliberate Practice” for expert performance. practice designed to improve, high cognitive effort, not errorless performance.

Learner is an ‘active’ participant (reading and planning activities)

Q

What are the Principles underpinning the challenge point framework?

A
  • If practice does not challenge the learner, learning unlikely (doing what you can already do)
  • If practice is too challenging, learning is also unlikely (overwhelming; can’t make sense of the uncertainty)
  • Conditions of practice that optimize challenge… “enough but not too much” best promote learning
    (some uncertainty/ variability/active problem solving)

Q

For learning, we want to be in this optimal challenge
zone… where practice is not “comfortable” or “punishing”

Q

What is the Zone for Optimal Learning?

A

The zone for optimal learning is when performance success
falls below 100%… when we are not performing our best,
this is when our system cares about learning

Q

We could consider blocked practice as being in a “comfortable zone”. We know that adding variation (random practice), brings in challenge

Q

What are Some examples of how to bring
challenges into practice?

A

1) Variable/random practice conditions
(↑ cognitive demands)

2) Decrease amount/frequency of instruction/ augmented FB

3) Uncertain and unusual conditions
- Bat/ball size, field size, # opponents
- Switch positions, watch from different angles
