sports and leadership Flashcards
what are fundamental movement skills? give an example
the basic skills learnt normally when young which are required for more advanced sport specfic skills
example: jumping, running, hopping, locomotion
what are the four types of fundamental movement skills according to the australian sports commision?
- object control
- locomotive skills
- body control
- aquatic skills
what are fine motor skills? give an example.
delicate, precise movements that engage the use of small muscle groups, example: playing the piano
what are gross motor skills? give an example.
movements involving the use of large muscle groups that result in a coordinated action. example: running.
what are discrete motor skills? give an example
movements of brief duration and have a clear beginning and end, example: throwing, kicking, catching.
what are serial motor skills? give an example.
a series of discrete skills strung together to create a more complicated sequence. example: Gymnastic routine, jumping to catch a ball.
what are continuous motor skills? give an example
they are a cycle of movement with no distinct beginning and end. example: swimming, running, cycling.
what are closed motor skills? give an example
motor skills performed in a predictable, self paced environment where there are no interruptions or changes in the surroundings.
example: throwing a free throw in basketball
what are open motor skills? give an example
motor skills performed in a constantly changing environment and that are externally paced. example: an approaching opponent, speed of the ball in cricket.
explain the concept of an open/closed continuum
some skills can be classed as more closed or more open than others therefore, based on how closed or open a skill is, we can place them on a continuum which then allows us to rank skills from closed to open
what are sport specific skills? give an example.
skills that utilise a range of fundamental movement skills in a sequence to perform a specfic sporting skill. example: Kicking a football requires running, balance, ball control, coordination of leg muscles to perform.
what is the cognitive stage of learning?
the first stage or beginner stage of learning
what is the associative stage of learning?
the second stage of learning or the practice stage of learning
what is the autonomous stage of learning?
the final stage of learning
what are object control examples?
kicking, throwing
