LESSON 1.1 - Motor Development as a Discipline Flashcards
Motor Skill
Voluntary Movement, needs practice
Motor Control
How our movements are controlled by the central nervous system
Motor Learning
Aquiring capability to execute skill, permanent change from practice
Motor Development
Changes in human behaviour throughout our lifespan
- the processes and factors affecting it
One-dimensional system
a system showing common character between two extreme ends (gross vs. fine)
Gross skills
smooth but not precise skills (e.g., running)
Fine skills
Hand-eye coordination, precise (e.g., writing)
Multidisciplinary
Knowledge from multiple disciplines contributing as a collective (additive) (e.g., kinesiology = motor behaviour + sport history + exercise psychology)
Interdisciplinary
Interaction between fields, overlapping (e.g., biochemistry, a smoothie of different berries)
Transdisciplinary
knowledge across and beyond disciplines, no boundaries (e.g., nanotechnology)
