- 1What is whole practice?Teaching the skill as a whole, not breaking it down into subroutines
- 2When is whole practice best used?The skill is: fast, ballistic, discrete, highly organised, simple
When the feel of the whole task is required as the learner develops and is ready to perform the whole task
When links between subroutines need to be maintained or skill needs to be performed in specific order - 3What are the advantages of whole practice?Helps create specific images that can be stored as a motor programme in the LTM
More realistic
Helps produce positive transfer
Makes skill consistent - 4What are the disadvantages of whole practice?May place unnecessary demands on performer who may not be able to cope with all aspects of the skill at once
Could induce fatigue
May be too much info to process - 5What is whole-part-whole practice?Performers attempt to perform skill as a whole then break down the skill into subroutines before going back to performing the skill as a whole
- 6When is whole-part-whole practice best used?When the skill is: complex, highly organised
When the performer is: novice - 7What are the advantages of whole-part-whole practice?Increases motivation when a long-standing weakness is corrected
Provides immediate feedback
Fluency is maintained
Performer gets the feel for the whole skill - 8What are the disadvantages of whole-part-whole practice?Danger of negative transfer
Time consuming
Once part is isolated, needs to be put back into the whole skill a.s.a.p - 9What is progressive part practice?A.K.A Chaining
Subroutine 1 taught, then SR1 + SR2, SR1+SR2+SR3, etc. - 10When is progressive part best used?When the skill is: serial, dangerous, low organisation, complex
- 11What are the advantages of progressive part practice?Learner allowed to focus on one aspect of the task can correct specific weakness(es)
Learner can rest during intervals, reduces fatigue
Increase in motivation after each SR is completed successfully
Builds an initial understanding of the skill
Increase confidence after each SR
Allows coach & player to focus on specific issues - 12What are the disadvantages of progressive part?Time consuming
Might neglect feel of whole task
