positive transfer
learning from one skill helps the learning of another
negative transfer
learning from one skill hinders the learning of another
bilateral transfer
the transfer from learning from one limb to another
how to optimise positive transfer
- transferable elements highlighted
- practice should replicate real game situations
- explanation on how practice will develop another skill
ways to limit negative transfer
- teach movement pattern to avoid confusion
- build the skill up to allow fluidity
- clear demonstrations
fine skills
example
intricate movements, small muscle groups involving lots of hand eye co-ordination
