UNIT 3 AOS 1 Flashcards
What is a motor skill?
Is any bodily movement used to achieve a specific goa
What is a Fine Motor Skill?
Involves the use of small muscle groups and senses such as touch and sight
What is a Gross Motor Skill?
The use of multiple large muscle groups and actions to produce coordinated movements
What is a discrete motor skill?
Involves movements that are of brief duration with a clear beginning and end
What is a serial motor skill?
A series of discrete motor skills strung together to create a more complex motor skill
What is a continuous motor skill?
Motor skills that have no clear beginning and ending to the movement pattern
What is Fine Motor Skills for?
For accuracy and precision
What is Gross Motor Skills for?
Strength, Speed, Muscular Power and Coordination
What are the influences of Movement?
Individual
Task-Related
Environmental
What is the link between Motor Skill Development, Participation and Performance?
The more developed a persons motor skills are the more likely they are to participate in more activities, thus improving their performance in those activities
- As motor skills develop, so do performance levels
- Motor skills can be an enabler or a barrier to movement skill development
- People are more likely to enjoy/motivated an activity and perform well if they have the skills required for it a person lacking the skills may lack the confidence to participate
What are the steps of Qualitative Movement Analysis?
Preparation
Observation
Evaluation
Error Correction
Cognitive Stage of Learning
Their attention will be on movement production and performance will be inconsistent, with stiff and unrelaxed movements
Associative Stage of Learning
More consistent and fewer errors are made
Autonomous Stage of Learning
Attention can be focused in external cues and opponents
Massed Practice
Less frequent sessions but last longer period of time
Distributed Practice
Shorter and more frequent sessions
Blocked Practice
Involves practicing the same skill continuously without changing to a different task
Random Practice
Involves varied sequencing of different motor skills in the same training session
Intrinsic Feedback
Information that the performed receives directly from their sensory systems
Augmented Feedback
Information about the skill performance that comes from an external source
Knowledge of Performance
Feedback on how well the skill is performed
Used when learning most movement skills
Knowledge of Results
Is information related to the outcome of the skill
Used when the learner cannot work out themselves
Sociocultural Factors
Family
Peers
Gender
Cultural Norms
Community
Socioeconomic Status
Linear Motion
The term motion refers to a body’s change in position in relation to time
Angular Motion
When a body moves along a circular path at the same angle in the same direction, at the same time
Torque
Is the tendency of an object to rotate (application of spin)
Moment of Inertia
Is the product of the distribution of the mass of the object and the axis when it rotates
