Motor Development and Skill Learning (PET 3056) Midterm Assignment Description and RubricDescription: The purpose of this assignment is for student’s to apply their knowledge of skill classification, motivation/arousal, learning styles and the behavioral theories of motor control. The midterm will consist of three parts: (1) Presentation introducing and classifying your chosen skill, (2) Demonstration of teaching your skill and (3) Providing feedback to your classmates. The midterm assignment is worth 150 points and will be an individual assignment. Students will be graded on the following:
Presentation (70 points): Students will create a presentation (this can be a video lecture, PowerPoint, Tri-Fold board, etc.) in which they describe the skill they have chosen, explain why the chose the skill, classify the skill (see slides 11-16 of the first lecture), provide ways to increase arousal during training, provide a learning style that would be most successful for your skill and determine the behavioral learning theory of motor control that would drive your action plan. Presentations should be no longer than 10 mins in length and should contain a minimum of 10 slides (including the title slide and references). Mrs. Reece will provide an example presentation for you to use as a template.
Demonstration (50 points): Students will teach an assigned classmate the skill chosen for their presentation. This will include all of the components of the skill and provide recommendations for limiting distractions and accommodating for individual differences and needs. Demonstrations will be included in the student’s assigned presentation time and should be no longer than 10 mins. Mrs. Reece will provide an example of a skill learning demonstration in class.
Peer Feedback (30 points): Students will complete a Google Form survey provided by Mrs. Reece to evaluate the classmates’ presentations and demonstrations.
Midterm Presentations will take place Monday, October 17th and Wednesday, October 19th. Mrs. Reece will provide a presentation template and skills learning demo on Wednesday 10/12/22.I want to talk about the reaction time in tennis.
