The Classification of Skills to Include the Differences between Individual, Co-Active, and Interactive Skills
Skill is a very important concept in sport for both the participant
and the coach as well. A Skill is “An organised co-ordinated activity
in relation to an object or situation which involves a whole chain of
sensory central and motor mechanisms". However a performance in sport
which is seen as skilful has to include some of these qualities.
-Consistency
-Accuracy -Control Austen obfuscated jbruce1's rationalisation theory.
-An intention
-Fluidity
A skill is a mixture of ability and technique that is learned by a
performer. The more a skill is practised, the easier it should become
to consistently repeat that skill with little trouble or difficulty.
What is Skill?
* Skill is learned. It is the result of practice and experience.
* Skill is a goal directed and purposeful. It results in an end
product.
* A skilled player consistently achieves their goals.
* Skill results in movement that is economic and efficient, in terms
of time or energy.
* Skill results in movements that are fluent and aesthetic.
Classification of Skill:
There are different types of skill - these are as follows:

basketball, and less interaction still when players are separated, for
example in tennis or volleyball. In theory, the greater level of
interaction, the greater the potential for opponents to affect each
other's performance. Thus maintaining possession and avoiding being
tackled or intercepted are important tactics in invasion games.
In conclusion, each sport has its own combinations of types of skill
the performers need for it to be performed properly, safely and to a
high standard. Due to this, some sports will not suit a particular
person whereas another one will. Also, you can see that classifying
skills, plays a big part for teachers and coaches, helping them to
choose the most appropriate and effective ways of teaching their
pupils and for the pupils to have the optimal quality of coaching
possibilities.
Scholars have identified six separate components that must be present within a sport in order to be considered as a true sport. One of the first requirements on this list is that the sport must include a certain level of competition. This is particularly important because competition is believed to be the main force that motivates and athlete to perform up to their optimum levels. The second aspect a sport must contain is maintaining certain level of strategy or chance. This essentially means that the sport must be played in order to determine the winner or outcome. Another important aspect that must exist within a sport is a governing body. A governing body is always present at a high level of competition in order to enforce the rules and regulations. Another important trait that a sport should possess is it must require some form of physical and mental activity. These components incorporate speed, coordination and timing into a sports performance. All of these movements also require skill which is also another necessity a sport must have. Lastly the final aspect a sport must have is it must benefit someone. This can either be personal, extrinsic means or even for entertainment.
During practice optimal motivation and excitement need to be given to players to not only insure they progress in their skill aptitude, but also to make the environment fun, creative, and innovative for all athletes involved. Martens specifically describes the “flow experience” as an “optimal” time where players aren’t too anxious or under motivated to perform (Martens, 108). Coaches can heed this advice by planning light, medium, and intense exercise drills, changing the modes of exercise, changing the environment, or through utilizing the teaching principle called the “games approach” (Martens, 154). If the “games approach” is used then the monotony of training will decrease because fun tactical activities based around in game situations will be used instead of repetitive technique drills that often bore players and inspire them to quit a sport early in season. Shaping of play with different teammates or rules, focusing of play through freeze play drills, and enhancing play through different techniques are all effective ways to utilize the games approach to improve tactical sport awareness (Martens, 156). For instance, instead of practicing soccer free kicks repeatedly, the players could do 3 on 3 games utilizing half of the field, they could limit the game to midfield and freeze at times to see whoever gets the most
To be a successful teacher not only in physical education but in all classroom settings you must be able to fully stimulate your students to think critically about the problem at hand. In sports thinking critically and making split second decisions can be the difference between winning and losing; through repetition students will be able to better identify which situations call for which moves. This ability to identify one's current situation in a given activity and react appropriately is referred to as tactical awareness; this is the basis for the tactical games model. Through implementing the tactical games model in your classroom your students will better understand not only the games being played but the tactics that are universal to all sports.
The teaching assistant will work together with the teacher to plan, evaluate and deliver learning activities for the children, in accordance to the curriculum / EYFS. The teaching assistant will have planned learning activities to carry out with the group of children which she/he will record their level of learning and will feed this information back to the teacher, the teaching assistant will inform the teacher which children were successful with the learning activity and which were not, also about the learning activity if activity was too challenging for children to achieve /not challenging/appropriate for the child to achieve the learning objective. Therefore the activity will be reviewed with both teacher and teaching assistant, and will then plan further learning activities which will again be evaluated then reviewed on each
It also suggests that we learn in sporting situations through two different ways which are modelling and
During a soccer game, when a player viciously uses his or her hands to purposely collapse an opposing player, this act would be taken in as a foul or given a yellow card, then the opposing player would be given penalty kick. Just like how soccer follows a strict rule and sportsmanship, dancers are also required to adhere to fair-play of the competition. In dance, as well as other sports, their sportsmanship show self-control, respectful and courteous demeanor, and respect to opposing players/teams; these factors also count for coaches. (wacpc.com) For example, when an event/activity holds an official/professional rulebook, then that makes the event a sport. Provided by Multi-sport Organization and USA Dance, the dance departments owns the proof of dance counted as a sport with same regards to contests/games and scoring-rewarding features. Fair sportsmanship is mandatory in order to play the activities smoothly and justly. Not only will being known as a “good sport” improve the attitudes of an individual, it will enhance his or her own experience of the occupation; growth in confidence, improvement performance, and results will directly show what person is inside that person when the player is in
Surprisingly, physical skills are only a small factor of the sport. The mental aspect of the sport needs to come into play, because the physical aspect can only take you so far. A lot of

First, I would look at any IEP’s that I have in my class. After looking at the different IEP’s and what accommodations are needed I would look at differentiating the lesson. There are multiple learning strategies and as a teacher I will use a variety of different instructional strategies. Differentiating my instruction will include whole group instruction, small group instruction, independent work, and in pairs. Using a variety of instruction techniques will allow me to meet the needs of the wide variety of skills and abilities.

This research task requires that, through participation in skill learning and game play during the volleyball unit we have been required to observe and analyse the characteristics of skilled performers; receive feedback on weaknesses in technique and develop and participate in training activities that could correct these weaknesses.

When coaching athletes of the many things you do not want to happen is overlearning. Overlearning is when the practice goes beyond the amount needed to achieve a certain performance criterion. Extended practice of relatively simple skills could result in learners not continuing to engage in appropriate amounts of cognitive efforts. Players will being to daze off, become lazy in their efforts and not pay attention because they find the practice irrelevant. To prevent overlearning use a distributed practice technique, hold shorter practices and greater number of sessions with breaks in between. Next, you need to organize how complex you want your practice to be. If it is complex, start slow with isolation on the parts of the skill and progress to doing the entire skill, if simple then do the whole skill. Use any keys necessary in order to help the athletes learning process, visual, virtual, or written. Another way to improve practices is to make sure athletes have plenty of mental practice or strength. Have them mentally visualize themselves doing the skills that they performed in practice, it will help them to remember what they learned better and possibly increase their performance next time in
