methods of presenting practice Flashcards
what are the three methods of presenting practice
whole
whole-part-whole
progressive part practice
define whole practice
performing the skill in its entirety without breaking it into sub-routines
why and when might a coach use whole practice
when the skill is fast / discrete
skill is highly organised, cannot be broken into sub-routines (high paced)
skill is simple
where kinaesthesis is required
performer is autonomous
skill is continuous
skill posesses no danger
golf swing
cycling
forward roll
advantages and disadvantages of whole practice
adv:
develops kinaesthesis
fluency maintained
not time consuming
creates a clear mental image
easily transfered into game situation/routine
enhances understanding
dis:
not ideal for cognitive performers
can cause fatigue
cant practice specific weaknesses in subroutines
define whole-part-whole practice
the learner attempts the full skill, then practices one subroutine (weakness) in isolation before being integrated back into the whole skill
why and when migh coaches use whole-part-whole practice
skill is fast
skill is complex
performer is cognitive but learning complex skill
performer is autonomous but want to concentrate on eliminating weaknesses
front crawl
advantages and disadvantages of whole-part-whole practice
adv:
kinaesthesis is maintained
immediate feedback given effectively weaknesses improved
fluency maintained between subroutines
confidence and motivation increase as success is earnt after eliminating weaknesses
dis:
time consuming
cannot use with highly organised skills
kinaesthesis can be negitively affected with gaps in movement
define progressive part practice
the first subroutine is taught and the other subroutines are learnt and added on in a sequence
can also be referred to as chaining
when might a coach use progressive part practice
the skill is serial
skill is dangerous
skill is low organised - easily broke into parts
skill is complex
performer is cognitive
advantages and disadvantages of progressive part practice
adv:
reduces the chance of information overload
reduces chances of fatigue
develops understanding behind each part of the skill
confidence and motivation increases between each part of the skill
danger element is reduced
dis:
very time consuming
cannot use wioth highly organised skills
fluency between subroutines can be negatively affected
kinaesthesis for whole skill not developed
