Pe Mr Turner Flashcards
What is ability?
Innate traits that determine a persons potential to acquire skills
What is skill?
Learned behaviour to bring about pre determined results
What are the seven characteristics to skilled performance?
Goal driven Efficient Flowing Aesthetically pleasing Technique Consistent Learnt
What is cognitive skill?
The use of the brain to reason an problem solve
What are motor skills?
Skills that involve physical movement and muscular control
What is perceptual skill?
Selecting, interpreting and making sense of the information from our senses
What is a psycho motor skill?
Movement decided upon an controlled by the brain
What is motor ability?
A series of genetically inherited traits that determine an individuals coordination, balance and speed of reactions
What is perceptual ability?
To be able to take in information, recognise it am make sense of it
Open-closed continuum
Open - unstable, changing environment.
Closed - performed in a stable, unchanging environment
Externally paced-self paced continuum?
Externally - the pace at which the skill is performed is initiated by something other than the performer
Self - the performer decided when the movement is begun and the pace at which it is performed
Gross-fine continuum?
Gross - a strong powerful movement requiring the use of the major muscle groups
Fine - small, precise movements showing high levels of accuracy and coordination
Discrete-serial-continuous continuum?
Discrete - a movement with a clear beginning and end
Serial - a series of specific movements chained together in a sequence
Continuous - no clear beginning or end, end phase of one movement blends into start phase of next
Briefly describe the cognitive stage of learning
Inconsistent
Reinforced trough external feedback
Performer relies on coach for cues
Often a process of trial and error
Briefly describe the associative stage of learning
Motor systems staring to come together
Rapid improvement
Simple movements become more accurate/smooth
Briefly describe the autonomous stage of learning
Consistent and aesthetically pleasing
Spare attention to focus on tactics
Motor systems well learned
Progress results from attention to fine details of technique
What is intrinsic feedback?
Feedback the performers receive from their proprioceptors
What is extrinsic feedback?
Feedback received from outside through vision and hearing
What is positive feedback?
Feedback when performance was successful - strengthens chance of being repeated
What is negative feedback?
Feedback after an unsuccessful performance
What is terminal feedback?
Feedback given after performance completed
What is concurrent feedback?
Feedback received during performance
What is knowledge of results?
Feedback about the outcome of a movement
What is knowledge of performance?
Feedback about movement rather than outcome
Why do plateaus occur?
Not physically ready for next step Fault in earlier skill Fatigue/boredom Lack of motivation Poor coaching
How do you overcome a plateau?
Avoid fatigue by breaking up sessions Ensure learner physically ready Break skill down into component parts Vary practices Allow time for mental rehearsal Generate motivation by providing reward
What is positive transfer?
Where the learning if one skill has a positive effect on the learning of another
What is negative transfer?
Where the learning of one skill hinders the learning of another
What is pro active transfer?
Where the learning of a previously learned skill effects the learning of a current skill
What is bilateral transfer
Where the learning of a skill can be transferred from a limb on one side of the body to a limb on the other side of the body
What is retroactive transfer?
Where the learning of a current skill effects a skill learned in the past
How would a coach make transfer successful?
Identify transferable elements of skill
Develop good basic movement patterns
Make sessions relevant to competitive environment
Eliminate opportunity for bad habits to develop
Describe the cognitive learning theory
Involves thought processes
Understanding process to achieve result
Experiences whole activity
Allows learners to develop own routes of understanding
Describe the observational learning theory
Copying or modelling ourselves on another person
Banduras - attention, retention, motor reproduction, motivation
