4 main ways of learning skill
Practice On your own With others
Copying Older relatives People at school People on TV
Trial and error Learning by your mistakes
Role models Your idols People you want to be like
For each of these main ways of learning skill, come up with your own examples. How did you learn your skills?
How did you learn the skills that you have?
How long did it take?
Who helped?
GCSE PE
Information Processing Model – catching a ball
Input.
The display, sights, sounds etc. ples the feedback from last
attempte.g. ball travelling to
your left
Decision making
Your brain works out what to do
eg. move quickly to left and put out
hands
Output
Moving to the left to catch the ball
Feedback.
Intrinsic – muscle receptors tell you whether you have caught itExtrinsic – e.g. coach information
GCSE PE
How do you know if you have produced a good performance?
Feedback
Internal This comes from inside the body
Muscles give the brain information telling it what happened
Have you ever hit a ball really sweetly? How did you know? I bet it felt good
External This is feedback from outside the body
What you see as a result of performance The ball going in the back of the net
What others tell you The coach Team mates
GCSE PE
Feedback continued..
Knowledge of results (KR) This tells you what happened
You won the game You hit the bar You came third in the race
It isn’t that effective as a form of feedback
Knowledge of performance (KP) This tells you how it happened
How you performed What you did well Where you can improve
It is a much more effective form of feedback
