skill and transfer Flashcards
skill classification
- open, closed, discrete, serial, continuous, gross, fine, self-paced, externally-paced, high organisation, low organisation, simple, complex
open-> a skill affected by the environment.
closed-> skill performed in a stable unchanging environment.
discrete-> a movement with a clear beginning and end.
serial-> series of specific movements chained together in a sequence.
continuous-> NO clear beginning and end, one phase of the movement blends into the start phase of the next cycle.
gross-> strong powerful movement, use major muscles.
fine-> small, precise movement showing high levels of accuracy & coordination.
self-paces-> the performer decides when movement is began and the place at which it’s performed.
externally-paced-> a skill that is initiated & pace of skill is started by something other the performer.
high organisation-> a skill that’s NOT easily broken down into parts.
low organisation-> skill that’s easily broken down.
simple-> needs limited decisions to be processed.
complex-> skill where there are many decisions to be made.
what is a skill
a skill is a learned ability to bring about a predetermined result with the minimum outlay of time, energy or both.
what are the characteristics of a skill
LACEFACE learned aesthetically pleasing consistent efficient fluent accurate controlled economical
what is the transfer of learning
the application of previous experience to present learning. the effect on the performance of practising one skill or learning another.
what are the types of transfer
positive transfer - beneficial effect
negative transfer - inhibits learning of additional skill
bilateral transfer - opposite side of the body
zero transfer - no similarities & no effect on other skill
what are the methods of practise
whole practice
progressive part
whole part whole
what are the types of practice
massed practice
distributed practice
varied practice
mental practice
what are the three stages of learning
cognitive stage of learning
associative stage of learning
autonomous stage of learning
what are the types of feedback
NIPPER intrinsic extrinsic positive negative knowledge of results knowledge of performance
what is a learning plateau
a period of time during which there is no change in performance- a levelling off
what is guidance
a large close of common methods in which the learner is guided in various ways through the movement patterns
what are the types of guidance
manual- physical support
mechanical- an artificial aid
verbal- an explanation of technique
visual- demonstration of technique
