- Skill and Ability
- A skill is an action or a way of behaving that can be learned.
- Once learned, a sill can be performed easily and efficiently again and again with the same or a very similar outcome.
- An ability is different from a skill, it is soething that you are born with, that you have inherited and it tends to be a relatively stable trait.
- it doesen't change throughout a persons life.
- Can affect a person's potential to learn or improve a particular skill.
- Classifications of skill
- Basic--------complex
- Basic skills are usually simple things like throwing, catching and striking. These skills tend to require less concentration and coordination than a complex skill.
- complex skills take a long time to learn because they involve a high level of concentration and coordination.
- Self paced--------externally paced
- a self paced skill is a skill started when the performer decides to start it. The speed, rate or pace of the skill is controlled by the performer.
- example: a player uses self paced skills during a table tennis ,match when they select the direction, speed, height and even the use of spin every time they serve.
- an externally paced skill is a skill which is started because of an external factor. The speed, rate or pace of thw skill is controlled by external factors, such as opponents or the environment.
- Example: in badminton you have to react to your opponent's serve, responding to the direction, speed, and height accordingly.
- a self paced skill is a skill started when the performer decides to start it. The speed, rate or pace of the skill is controlled by the performer.
- Gross movement------ fine movement
- A gross movement skill is a skill that uses large muscle groups to perform big, strong, powerful movements
- Example: The phases of a triple jump are examples of gross movement skills.
- a fine movement skills is a skill involving small, precise movements, showing high levels of accuracy and coordination. It involves the use of a small group of muscles.
- Example: A spin bowler uses fine movement skills to create the spin on the ball, which then decides the direction it travels before and after landing.
- A gross movement skill is a skill that uses large muscle groups to perform big, strong, powerful movements
- Open--------closed
- Open skills are skills that are affected by the environment, where the performer must react and adjust to a changing situation
- example:if a strong wind is blowing during a rugby match, you will have to take this into account when performing a drop kick.
- a closed skill is not affected by the environment or the performers within it. This means the skill tends to be performed in the same way each time.
- Example: A diver's performing environment is predictable and stable and so a diver will perform each dive in the same way each time.
- Open skills are skills that are affected by the environment, where the performer must react and adjust to a changing situation
- Basic--------complex
- A skill is an action or a way of behaving that can be learned.
