Flashcards

Autonomous Stage
Motor skills become almost automatic, errors are infrequent, and self-correction is common. Strategies include varied practice conditions, development of decision-making skills, and practicing under competitive conditions to simulate performance.
Cognitive Stage
This stage involves high concentration, frequent errors, and cognitive understanding of the task. Strategies to enhance learning include verbal explanations, demonstrations, and feedback after each attempt to foster the understanding.
Late Associative Stage
Fine-tuning is predominant, and movements become more fluid and reliable. Strategies involve practicing under more varied and challenging conditions, developing the learner's ability to adapt the skill, and reducing feedback even further.
Early Associative Stage
Here, the learner works on refining the skill, making smaller errors, and is less reliant on guidance. Strategies could be to introduce more complex aspects of the task, provide feedback that helps learners correct their own errors, and to continue practicing the basics.
Late Cognitive Stage
The learner starts to get a sense of the basic movements needed, although performance is still heavily conscious. Strategies include varying the types of practice, using more specific feedback, and starting to encourage the learner to self-assess their performance.
Early Autonomous Stage
The individual can perform the skill consistently in a variety of situations with minimal conscious effort. Strategies to enhance learning include adding distractions, encouraging the learner to teach others, and focusing on strategy optimization.
Associative Stage
Learners begin to master the basics, make fewer errors, and start refining their motor skills. Key strategies are practice for consistency, minimized feedback emphasizing internal cues, and focusing on the precise aspects of the task.
Early Cognitive Stage
This involves initial exposure to the new skill, where the learner is trying to understand what is to be done. Strategies are clear and simple instructions, repeated demonstrations, and feedback that helps guide understanding of the task.
Transition from Associative to Autonomous Stage
The transition is marked by increased consistency, speed, and efficiency of the skill. Focus shifts to automaticity and fine-tuning. Strategies involve high-repetition practice, simulated pressure situations, and integration of the skill in various contexts.
Transition from Cognitive to Associative Stage
As learners transition, they show improvement in accuracy, reduced need for overt cognitive involvement, and begin to refine their technique. Strategies include structured practice regimens, gradually reducing external feedback, and encouraging internal feedback mechanisms.
