- Transfer of learning
- Positive
- when a skill enhances the learning and performance of another skill
- The throwing action and the racket arm action of a tennis serve
- when a skill enhances the learning and performance of another skill
- Negative
- when a skill hinders the learning and performance of another skill.
- Temporary and can be overcome e.g. loose to strong wrist from badminton to tennis.
- when a skill hinders the learning and performance of another skill.
- Proactive
- Where a previously learned skill influences a skill currently being learned
- a throwing motor programme positively and proactively transfers to a volleyball serve
- Where a previously learned skill influences a skill currently being learned
- Retroactive
- A new skill aids a previously learned skill.
- A tennis serve may influence a over arm cricket throw
- A new skill aids a previously learned skill.
- Bilateral
- where the learning of a skill with one limb can be transferred to the opposite limb
- Motor control explanation:
- Schema for movement already present for one side of body. modified for new limb
- Cognitive explanation:
- thinking about skill may improve transfer
- Occurs between arm and arm/leg and leg e.g. throwing with both arms
- Motor control explanation:
- where the learning of a skill with one limb can be transferred to the opposite limb
- Zero
- No link between prior and present learning.
- a football kick would have no effect on a swimming kick
- No link between prior and present learning.
- Optimizing effects of positive transfer
- Making learner aware of transferable elements
- Clear demonstration to aid transfer
- creating a learning situation that allows positive transfer
- Recreating similar environment to competition
- Reinforcement and strengthening of S-R bonds. good foundations for learning skills
- limiting effects of negative transfer:
- matching environment to game situation
- make sure performer understands requirements of the task
- Attention focused on motor programmes that positively transfer
- Part presentation method:- first sub routine fully learned before second attempted
- Positive
- Negative
- when a skill hinders the learning and performance of another skill.
- Temporary and can be overcome e.g. loose to strong wrist from badminton to tennis.
- when a skill hinders the learning and performance of another skill.
