Study Notes
- The principles of learning motor skills are being presented as part of an interactive discussion
- College of Teacher Education BPED 2nd year students should be able to explain the principles of learning motor skills, determine how practice and feedback influence motor skill learning, and analyze how attention, focus, and arousal levels affect performance with 75% accuracy within 45 minutes
Principle of Interest
- A student's attitude significantly influences the amount and type of learning that happens when learning a skill
- People are more likely to learn when they find the activity engaging and enjoyable
Principle of Practice
- Correctly practicing a motor skill is critical for effective learning
- Consistent and repeated practice improves motor skills over time
Principle of Distributed Practice
- Short, intense practice periods contribute to more learning than longer, massed practice sessions
- Motor skills are learned more effectively when practice sessions are spread out, incorporating breaks, rather than continuous long periods without rest
Principle of Skill Specificity
- The ability to perform a motor skill effectively is independent of the ability to perform other motor skills
- Motor skills are improved most effectively when practice is directly related to the specific skill or task being mastered
- Skills learned should match the demands of the performance situation
Principle of Whole-Part Learning
- The efficiency of teaching a skill as a whole or breaking it into parts depends on the complexity of the skill and the learner's ability
- When a skill can be broken down, practice the entire skill first and then focus on specific parts to improve those areas, before integrating everything again
Principle of Transfer
- The more identical two tasks are, the higher the chance of positive transfer occurring
- Practice conditions should align with the conditions in which the motor skill will be applied
Principle of Skill Improvement
- Motor skill development progresses from least to most mature, and the rate and amount of progress depend on the interaction between nature and nurture
- Motor skills improve gradually through consistent practice, focused effort, and incremental adjustments
Principle of Feedback
- Internal and external information about motor performance is crucial for learning
- Receiving information about performance guides improvements
- Feedback can be intrinsic, which is from the body itself, or can be extrinsic through an external source like a coach or technology
Principle of Variable Practice
- Block practice helps performance while variable practice aids in learning and increases attention
- Practicing a skill in various situations, conditions, and contexts enhances skill adaptability and robustness
