UNIT 1 Information Links Between Learning Skill Ability
UNIT 1 - Information Links Between Learning, Skill, Ability, Technique and Performance LEARNING 1) A permanent change in performance as a result of practice and/ or experience. 2) The act of gaining knowledge or acquiring skill. Information/Discussion Practical Application – For learning to take place there has to be practice, guidance, feedback and motivation, as most physical activities require a number of different skills. Links – Before you can perform a skill you have to learn it. Diagram/Table Activity – Skill and Ability are essential for improving performance and succeeding in physical activity.

UNIT 1 - Information Links Between Learning, Skill, Ability, Technique and Performance ABILITY • An innate physical characteristic which facilitates movement. Information/Discussion Practical Application – Ability is inherited e. g. to be a good golfer you need to have been born with basic natural capacity – coordination, balance and flexibility. Links Diagram/Table Activity – Ability can be improved through practice – lays a foundation for future skills development. – Ability can be PHYSICAL e. g. strength needed for a tackle in rugby, or PERCEPTUAL e. g. interpreting information – centre midfield in Hockey assessing what is in front of him/her before making a pass.

UNIT 1 - Information Links Between Learning, Skill, Ability, Technique and Performance SKILL Information/Discussion Practical Application Links Diagram/Table Activity • A learned ability to bring about pre-determined results with maximum certainty and efficiency • Skills are the complex, critical and intricate movements performed during physical activity • Effective performance – Skills have to be practised. – Skills are used to achieve targets e. g. scoring a century in cricket. – Skills make the performance more effective and efficient.

UNIT 1 - Information Links Between Learning, Skill, Ability, Technique and Performance • TECHNIQUE – The Basic movements in sport, when put together form a pattern of movement – skill e. g. receiving, dribbling, making a pass in Hockey. Information/Discussion • PERFORMANCE Taking part in physical activity: how a skill is carried out. Practical Application Links – Standards of performance can vary. – How well you perform a skill is a reflection of your ability level.

UNIT 1 – Practical Application Links Between Learning, Skill, Ability, Technique and Performance Information/Discussion Practical Application Links Diagram/Table Activity • Start with developing a skill with a group e. g. lay-up in Basketball. A skill that needs co-ordination, agility, flexibility and power. • Guidance – demonstration and accompanying verbal. • Video each member of the group. • Discussion – ‘Are there any in the group better than others? ’ Why? Establish ability identity. • Practise the skill of lay-up with guidance over a period of time. • Video again and compare with footage of initial attempts. • Intimate discussion – ‘Have all of the group improved and learned the skill of ‘lay-up’ in Basketball? ’ Revision SECTION B GCSE Physical Education MAIN MENU
UNIT 1 – Practical Application Links Between Learning, Skill, Ability, Technique and Performance Information/Discussion Practical Application Links • This is the time to theorise: - ‘Ability’, ‘Skill’, ‘Technique’, ‘Performance’, using individuals in the group to identify the differences in skilful performance. • ‘Have those with less ability initially improved with guidance and practice to become more skilful and reach certain targets? ’ – scoring 90% of the time. • ‘Have those with better ability improved with guidance and practice to become more skilful and reach certain targets? ’ – scoring 90% of the time.
