Methods of presenting practice Flashcards
define whole practice and when its used
the skill is presented in its entirety and not broken into parts
used when
highly organised, continuous, simple, discrete, not dangerous, performer is autonomous
what are the pros and cons of whole practice
pros: kinaesthesis is developed, fluency between subroutines is maintained, not time consuming, creates a clear mental image, easily transferred into full game
cons: not good for cognitive performers, can cause information overload and fatigue, must be physically capable of producing the full skill
define whole-part-whole practice and when its used
the learner attempts the full skill, then one subroutine in isolation before integrating back into the entire skill
used when:
skill is complex, skill is fast, cognitive and learning induvidual parts, autonomous and concentrating weakness
whole-part-whole practice pros and cons
pros: kinaesthesis is maintained in the whole, weak parts can be focused on, fluency between subroutines is maintained in whole, confidence and motivation increases as success is seen in each part
cons: time consuming, cannot use with highly organised skills, kinaesthesis can be negatively affected if the part isnt integrated quickly and adequately
define progressive part practice and when its used
the first part is taught and practised until perfected. the rest of the parts are added sequentially until the whole of the skill can be performed
used when: skill is - low organisation, serial, complex, dangerous, performer is cognitive
what are the pros and cons of progressive part practice
pros: focusing on just one part of the skill reduces the chance of overload and fatigue, aids understanding of each part, confidence and motivation increases as success is seen in each part, danger is reduced
cons: very time consuming, cannot use highly organised skills, fluency between subroutines can be negatively affected, kinaesthesis for the whole skill isnt experienced until the end
