Document Summary
Motor learning - a relatively permanent change in the performance levels of a motor task as the result of practice. Common tool used in motor learning is the pursuit rotor: motor skills. Motor skill - denotes an act or task that has a goal to achieve and that requires voluntary body or limb movement to be properly performed. The acquisition of a motor skill is a process in which the learner develops a set of motor responses into an integrated and organized movement pattern. Skill, unlike talent, is a consequence of training and practice. Determine which components of a skill are common or similar to components of another skill. For each classification system, consider each of the two categories as extreme ends of a continuum. This classification system is most commonly used in special education, adapted physical education, and rehabilitation. Gross motor skills - involve large musculature as the primary basis of movement - walking, throwing, jumping, most sport skills.
