An understanding of the scientific principles underpinning the
learning and execution of fundamental and skilled movements is of
central importance in disciplines across the sport and exercise
sciences. The second edition of Motor Control, Learning and
Development: Instant Notes offers students an accessible, clear and
concise introduction to the core concepts of motor behavior, from
learning through to developing expertise. Including two brand new
chapters on implicit versus explicit learning and motor control and
aging, this new edition is fully revised and updated, and covers:
definitions, theories and measurements of motor control;
information processing, neurological issues and sensory factors in
control; theories and stages of motor learning; memory and
feedback; the development of fundamental movement skills; and the
application of theory to coaching and rehabilitation practice.
Highly illustrated and well-formatted, the book allows readers to
grasp complex ideas quickly, through learning objectives, research
highlights, review questions and activities, and encourages
students to deepen their understanding through further reading
suggestions. This is important foundational reading for any student
taking classes in motor control, learning or behavior or skill
acquisition, or a clear and concise reference for any practicing
sports coach, physical education teacher or rehabilitation
specialist.
