Document Summary
Structuring practice: work vs rest intervals, variation in experiences (involved with schema theory, practice order, self-judgements of learning (learners are very inexact with judging learning process) Refers to the distribution of practice effect (massed vs distributed practice) Hulls theory of reactive inhibition was a theory about learning and distribution of practice was an extremely important component predicted certain effects of mental fatigue on learning. Distribution of practice affects mental fatigue rather than physical fatigue. As mental fatigue builds up effect on performance and learning. More important for continuous than for discrete skills. Within session (eg. bourne & archer, 1956) Across sessions (eg. baddeley & longman, 1976) retrained postal workers in britain. Goal: rotary pursuit task, stay on target as long as possible in a trial of 30 s. Rotary pursuit tasks rotate at diff speeds light beam projecting up from one corner of disk , light beam going around too.
