Psychomotor Domain of Learning Flashcards
Theory of multiple intelligence is also known as
Gardner’s theory
Defined intelligence as the capacity to solve problems in seven areas
Gardner’s theory
Well-organize and coordinated activity requiring manual manipulation of things, movement, and language
Psychomotor skill
Well-organized and coordinated activity requiring manual
manipulation of things, movement, language
Psychomotor skill
Behaviors that consist of manipulating objects
Object-motor
Behaviors or activities with symbolic value and are concerned with communication
language-motor
Concerned with communicating attitudes or feelings through movement
Feeling-motor
Factors of psychomotor abilities
control precision
multilimb coordination
response orientation
reaction time
rate of control
manual dexterity
finger dexterity
arm-hand steadiness
wrist-finger speed
ability to make fine movements using one limb or extremity
control precision
ability to coordinate movement using a number of limbs
multilimb coordination
recognition of stimulus and the performance of appropriate motor response
response orientation
speed of response to a stimulus
reaction time
ability to adjust a motor response to the changing speed of a target
rate of control
In manipulating objects
manual dexterity
controlled manipulations of small objects
finger dexterity
ability to position the arm and hand accurately with minimal tremors
arm hand steadiness
ability to perform rotary or pendular movements
wrist-finger speed
Taxonomy of the psychomotor domain
- Perception
- Set
- Guided response
- mechanism
- complex overt response
- adaption
- origination
Practice will initially result in a rapid improvement in performance since unpracticed nodes will be strengthened but there will come a point when additional practice will not bring the same observation
theory of speech production
composed of “mental nodes” where phrases, words, or syllables form a sentence
Action hierarchy
involved in a speech production, such as the tongue, larynx, and lips
muscles
skill development occurs in three phases
three phase theory
Instructional events in teaching psychomotor skills
- gaining attention
