CEMPOD
what does the coninuity continuim have
discrete serial and continuous
what is discrete
Skill has a definite beginning and end
Usually brief in nature –
a single skill
If a skill is repeated, have to start from the beginning
what is serial
A number of discrete skills put together to make a sequence or series
The order in which the distinct elements is important
Each movement is both a stimulus and a response
what is continuous
No clear beginning or end of skill
Activity continues for unspecified time
Usually performed for a longer period of time
what are the 2 environmental factors
open and closed
what are open skills
The environment is changing & others affect the skill.
Much information to process
Often externally paced
Skills will require variations
Movements will require adjustments
what are closed skills
Not affected by the environment
Stable and predictable
Internally / Self-Paced
what is a gross skill
Involve large muscle movements
Involves large muscle groups
Major body movement skills
what is on the muscular continum
gross and fine
what is a fine skill
Involve small muscle movements
Involve small muscle groups
Small bodily movements
what are on the pacing continuum
externally paced and self paced
what is a self paced skill
A performer decides when to perform or start the skill
Performer decided the rate at which the skill is performed
More closed skills e.g. shot put
what is a externally paced skill
Performance of the action is determined by external sources
Involves the performer in reaction
More open skill (e.g. white water canoeing)
what is low organisation skill
Sub-routines can be easily identified from overall movement
Sub-routines can be practised in isolation from overall movement
what is on the organisation continuum
low and high
what is a high organisation skill
Skill cannot be split into sub-routines
Sub-routines have to be practised as part of whole movement
what is the difficulity continuum
simple and complex
what is a simple skill
Little information or stimuli to process.
Few decisions
Time to use feedback.
Few sub-routines
what is a complex skill
Large amounts of information to process
Affected by the environment
Less time to use feedback
Many sub-routines to perform in correct order at correct time
