Answer 1

1.Cognitive
2.Associative
3.Autonomous

Question 2

Define a cognitive stage learner

Answer 2

the first stage of learning used by a novice,understanding skills are explored through trial and error

Question 3

Characteristics of a cognitive stage learner

Answer 3

-performer relies solely on extrinsic feedback
-no motor programmes
-movements are unco ordinated and jerky
-performer thinks carefully about their actions

Question 4

Define an associative stage learner

Answer 4

the second stage of learning,motor programmes are forming and performance is smoother

Question 5

characteristcs of an associative stage learner

Answer 5

-feedback is starting to become intrinsic
-movements are smoother and more co-ordinated
-to make progess,high amounts of practice is needed
-compare themselves to autonomous stage learners
-MOTOR PROGRAMMES are developing

Answer 6

the final stage of learning used by an expert when movement is detailed and specific

Question 7

Characteristics of a autonomous stage learner

Answer 7

-movement is fluent,efficient and automatic
-skills are overlearned
-motor programmes fully developed
