Skills (2.1) Flashcards
motor programme
.series of subroutines organised in specific order to perform a movement
.stored in LTM
3 broad classifications
how precise
environment
definite beginning and end
subroutine
separate movements that make up a skill
attentional wastage
when a performers concentration is misdirected (distracted)
kinaesthetic sense
sense of physical feeling we get
proprioreceptors send info to the brain
simple skill
little effort/cognitive ability
few subroutines
complex skill
lots of effort/concentration
takes time to learn
many subroutines
open skill
continuously changing environment
usually e paced
closed skill
environment stays same
usually s paced
self paced skill
you control the rate you do a skill and how it is performed
usually closed
externally paced
environment controls the rate you perform a skill
usually open
gross skill
large muscle groups
not very precise
fine skill
small muscle groups
precise
discrete skill
brief, well defined movements
clear beginning and end
single specific skills
serial skill
group of discrete skills put together to make a more complex skill
linked discrete skills
continuous skill
no clear beginning or end
end of one cycle is start of another
low organistaion
easy and uncomplicated
discrete movements practised separately to improve technique
high organisation
complex
number of phases that cant be broken down or practised separately
requires lots of attention
part practise
isolating a sub routine to practise
whole practise
teaching skill without breaking it down
whole - part - whole practise
skill as a whole
subroutine
skill as a whole
progressive part practise
parts are progressively built on until full skill learned
massed practise
long practise periods with no rest
skill continuously repeated
