motor learning and coaching Flashcards
define transfer of learning
is the effect that past experiences have on learning a new skill
list categories of transfer of learning
skill to skill
theory to practise
training to competition
define skill to skill
occurs when a skill developed in one sport has an influence on a skill in another sport
define theory to practise
the transfer of theoretical skills into practise
define training to comp
refers to the transfer of skills developed in training into competition situation
list and describe the different effects of transfer of learning
positive transfer of learning
- when skills or info gained from a previous learning experience helps with the learning of a new skill. 100m sprint and long jump
negative transfer of learning
- occurs when skills or info negatively impacts on learning of a new skill. cricket and baseball
zero transfer of learning
- occurs when the learning of a new skill is not affect either pos or neg. swimming and netball
list the coaching activities
simple to complex
shaping
chaining
static to dynamics
describe simple to complex
a drill that begins with an easier version of the skill as the mastered complexities are added until the whole skill is able to beperformed at the speed and intensity required for a comp (teaching skills to little kids)
describe shaping
the process of simplifying a complex skill or using an incomplete. version of the skill.
EXAMPLE:
1 step layup
2 step layup
drbble lay up
recieve pass and lay up
run at basket recieve pass, step defender, lay up
describe chaining
the breaking down into parts of a complex skill or activity and teaching the skill part by part then concluding with a total completion of the skill.
freestyle
- just kicking
- just doing arms
- putting it all together.
describe static and dynamic the coaching activity
a drill that begins with a palyer stationary to execute the skill and gradually add in the movement required, until it is performed at the peed andintensity required by competition.
STATIC
- performer practices skill while in a stationary position
- in a closed environment
dynamic
- performer is moving
- in an open environment
list the 5 different reflective improvement methods
checklist, training log, coach/ mentor feedback, video analysis, questionarres
describe the reflective improvement method : training log
reporting how you felt with their performance which can be checked by coach for feedback
describe the reflective improvement method checklist
made up of key points or criteria on how the skill should be correctly executed and gathers info to improve performance
describe the reflective improvement method video analysis and provide 5 benefits
recording the performance and showing it back to the athlete in order to point out areas that needs to be improved.
- can be used in comparision of elite athletes performing.
- slow motion to make it esier to notice errors
- zoom in of skill
- track progress - stored and measured for improvement
- different people can review it

describe the relective improvement method questionnaires
a specific set of questios set by the coach, for athlete to complete post performance to evaluate and reflect on what they performed well/didnt.
draw reflective learning flow chart
relfection - recognition of areas to improve - planning for improvement- action.
qualitative analysis is also known as
Knudsen Morrision model
name and out line each stage of qualitative analysis a coach would use to improve an athletes golf swing
preparation
- coach gains the knowledge of the skill
observation
- the coach watches or videos the athlete gathering masses of data
evaluation
- identification of errors/strengths/ weaknesses and plans ways to correct them
intervention
- the coach provides feedback or gives them drills to help improve his swing
draw the flow diagram of the stages of qualitative analysis
1.preparation- 2.observation- 3.evaluation- 4.intervention- 5. revaluation
list the stages a coach uses in qualitative analysis
preparation
observation
evaluation
intervention
re-evaluation
list the 3 different coaching styles
laissez faire
democratic
autocratic
define what the autocratic leadership style is when its best used
- leader makes the decision and define clear roles both on and off feild
- time bound and need results immediately
- if theyre working with novice players as they need to be provided with demonstrations
- coaching a team that lacks disapline
- dangerous activities are being conducted ehich require supervisoin and guidance
describe one negative for each of the leadership styles
autocratic- not ideal for the experienced athletes that are intrinsically motivated
democratic- doesnt work well under time constraints as they require resluts fast
laissez faire- players can fool around which can be a safety issue
define the democcratic leadership style and describe when it is best used
this leader consults and the coach and the group are both apart of the decision making process.
- players feel like thay have a degree of ownership of the team as theyre apart of decisions
-works well when athletes are experienced as they can add to the process of desisions
- when coaching individual athletes that are intrinsically motivated liek tennis
- works well with female teams as theyre more likely to contribute in group descussion
define the laissez fair leadership style and when its used
where the coach will let people do as they choose and are handoff
- coach can step back allowing players to step forawrd into leadership roles
- creates inititave and allows athletes to think outside the box
- meets the needs of athletes who want to focus of participation and socialisaion not winning
- training is relaxed creating less pressure and can lead to improvent of skill or game play
there are many athletes who have come from a gymnastics background, then moved to diving and been very successful. when learning a new routine, coaches often get these athletes ot practised a simplified version of the skill which doesnot replicate actual performance.
Dfine the training activity used
shaping which is the process of simplifying a complex skill or using an incomplete. version of the skill.
