Document Summary

Assess motor skills involved in everyday movement. Learning: relatively permanent change in a persons capability to execute a motor skill as a result of practice of experience. Through repeated observations of an individuals performance, we infer whether the individual has learned the skill. Motor learning: involved in acquisition/ refining motor skills. Motor control: neural, physical, behavioral, aspect underlying human movement. Beginning and end are arbitrary (go until you can"t) Type of action unknown until just before needed of time. No control over when to begin action action. Have to match actions with those of a teammate, an opponent or other variable. Example: country road vs. forestry with possibility of deer crossing. Specify movement characteristics necessary to perform a skill successfully. Genetic traits are prerequisite for skilled performance. Identified underlying motor abilities that are predicative of high skill proficiency levels. Created a taxonomy by which skills are classified. Two categories: perceptual motor ability, physical proficiency abilities.
