Useful for serial skills

Difficult if there is strong interactions between parts

May lead to loss of fluidity

Breakdown and teach independently

Q

Explain whole practice

A

Effective for rapid discrete skills where part practice can hinder learning such as a golf swing

 continuous skills with high component interaction

Q

Explain massed versus distributed practice

A

The ratio between work and rest

Distributed genuinely viewed as more effective the performance of learning

Also helps with retention

Q

Why may distributed practice be better?

A

Fatigue
 Reduce cognitive effort in Matt due to less time to think

Better memory consolidation with distributed

Q

What is contextual interference (blocked v random)

A

When a series of different are practiced within one session

Random forces the learner to perform additional cognitive operations which result in more meaningful storage of information in memory

Q

What must be considered with contextual interference?

Q

What is Discovery learning?

A

The hands off approach

Q

What are the differences between the traditional approach and hands-off approach?

Q

How does discovery learning relate to feedback?

A

Encourages reliance on intrinsic rather than augmented feedback

Uses fading out feedback such as performance bandwidth and timing

Must resist temptation to instruct as performance may decrease initially
