This assignment is a review of a recent critical incident. Analyze the incident based on the material covered so far in class. You will prepare three to four pages in length (not including cover page or reference pages) exploring the incident and any response to the incident.An abstract is not required. Follow the guidelines in either Course Content or in the conference. The paper is due at the end of week 4 and must be submitted in your Assignment folder. Review the late policy above. Examples of current events include the recent kidnappings in Algeria, recent hurricanes, or terrorist attacks around the globe. Remember you are writing about how the incident occurred and the response to the incident.

Answer the following questions.  Question #1 You have learned several methods of skill classification. Select a motor skill and classify according to: 1.   Environmental predictability 2.   Task Organization 3.   Importance of motor vs cognitive importance Explain why each classification is an important consideration when selecting appropriate learning strategies for an early learner. Question #2 Practice variability affects motor learning. It is the assumption that to perform under variable conditions, such as attempting to make a golf swing, the learner needs to practice under a variety of conditions. In other words, only practicing at the driving range would not transfer well to a real game. Overall, variability of practice seems to be a critical learning and performance issue. 1. Provide an example of a specific motor skill that would like to teach. 2. After you have selected that motor skill develop a three-week practice schedule, three days per week that shows variability of practice. 3. In your own words, define schema as it relates to motor learning, practice variability, and transfer of motor skills. 4. What is the schema that you are hoping the learner will develop about your skill? Question #3 Describe the teaching/learning dilemma of speed vs accuracy. Why is this concept fundamental to both learning and performance of movement skills? 1. What is the most critical consideration when choosing between each? 2. What are the trade-offs the teacher and learner must consider? 3. Provide an example of applying this concept. 4. Explain your philosophy concerning the emphasis of each in a learning environment. Question #4 All learners go through various stages of learning from the beginning as early learners to advanced or elite.  1.     Select a skill and illustrate how Fitts-Posner’s stages of learning interacts with Schema theory. 2.     Where does the concept of degrees of freedom fit within this discussion?
