3 lectures, Winter and Spring terms .
An introduction to the concepts and theories of learning motor skills. Laboratory sessions enable the student to participate in a variety of commonly used experimental procedures which relate to concepts and theories presented in lectures.
Prerequisite: Kinesiology 222*
3 lectures, 2 hours laboratory, Winter term
An information processing model of perceptual-motor behaviour is presented. Human performance theory is used to study those processes mediating input and output information. Specifically, the subprocesses of storage of information in memory, perception, retrieval of information from memory and execution of movement are examined. Principles derived from the model are applied to the teaching of motor skills, the study of mental retardation and the study of skill deterioration in old age.
Prerequisite: Kinesiology 355* or consent of instructor
