Skill acqusition (Types and methods of practice, Classification of skills…

- - - - Gross - Large muscular movements using lots of muscle groups and are not precise. eg shot put
      - Fine - Intricate movements using small muscle groups and are generally precise that use lots of hand eye coordination. Eg snooker shot
  - - - Closed - Not affected by the environment. It is predictable for the performer and they know exactly what to do. They follow a set pattern and have a clear begginnig and end, they also tend to be self paced. For example a free throw in basketball.
      - Open - Affected by the environment especially in team games. The environment is constantly changing and skills are predominantly perceptual eg netball match
  - - - Serial - A group of discrete skills all put together to make a complex movement. e.g. sequence of skills for a triple jump.
      - Continous- no obvious beginning or end. Often repeated like swimming, running or cycling.
      - Discrete - Breif and well defined. They have a clear beginning and end. For example a penalty kick in football.
  - - - Externally - The environment controlls rate of performance and must pay attention and react. Usually open skills, for example in ball games players must react form other players
      - Internally - They can also be self paced when the perofrmer controlls the rate at which the performance wlll happen. They are usually closed skills, such as javelin or discuss.
  - - - Complex - Involve lots of decisions and complicated judgements. Complicated and practised lots to make it easier to perform in competitions, like somersault or tennis serve
      - Simple - straight forward with few judgements and decisions. Need little concentration and cognitive ability. For example swimming, sprinting
  - - - High - High organisational skills have many subroutines but they can't be broken down or practiced. For example, cartwheel or golfswing
      - Low - Low skills are very easy, and phases are discrete and could be practices seperately. Subroutines are easy to seperate. For example, swimming strokes or a trampoline sequence.
