Learning Outcomes
- Identify relevant variables of motor learning to apply knowledge to professional areas
- Understand the difference between performance improvements and motor learning, and become familiar with how these are tested, measured and presented
- Discuss the cognitive skill learning characteristics of motor control and functional skill development by analysing their measurement in research and application to practice
- Identify key attributes of learning proposed by leading researchers in the field, and discuss hypotheses that attempt to explain why motor learning occurs; and
- Discover theory to practice techniques from the literature that can be directly applied to professional areas to benefit student/client motor learning.
