Stages of learning Feedback Guidance Goal setting
What are the different stages of learning
Cognitive
Assosaitive
Autonmous
What is the cognitive stage of learning
The preparation stage of starting to learn a new skill
Lots of mistakes are made
What is the assosiative stage of learning
The practice stage where you repeat and practice the skills to improve
Number of mistakes decrease as more practice is done
