Learning and Performance Learning can be defined as... “... a change in the capability of a person to perform a skill that must be inferred from a relatively permanent improvement in performance as a result of practice
Thing to consider... Is learning different from performance?

Gentile‟s (1972) Two Stage Model of Motor Skill Learning
Image by minwoo
Initial Stage of Learning 1 - Acquire a Movement Coordination Pattern 2 - Discriminate between regulatory and non-regulatory conditions Later Stages of Learning 1 - Ability to adapt the movement pattern to specific performance situation 2 - Increase consistency 3 – Perform the skill with an economy of effort

During the Initial Stage
During the Later Stages Closed Skills
learnt in initial stage
possible to real life Open Skills
movements to open play
regulatory conditions Magill, 2010 Observable Indicators of Improved Skill Process Measures
actions executed
movements against the target behaviour
Outcome Measures
from the individuals performance
frequency, accuracy and consistency
