  This study guide for the second edition of Motor Learning and Performance further challenges students to apply the problem-based learning approach presented in the text when seeking solutions to motor performance and learning problems. Designed to work in tandem with the new edition to help students better understand the information, it also helps the instructors to develop effective learning experiences. It is structured to correspond to the first 10 chapters of the textbook and follows a consistent format. It offers a variety of exercises, questions and activities. It also includes the following features: key concepts - briefly summarizes the chapter's most important concepts; key terms - lists those terms needed to effectively complete the activities and answer the problems; review questions require the students to demonstrate their understanding and application of key concepts, taking theory into practice; problem-solving exercises challenge students to analyse specific responses to specific problems and then to create their own solutions; your solution - offers templates to help students organise their thoughts in creating a viable working strategy. Completing the Study Guide helps students develop a working knowledge of how to use the Conceptual Model of Human Performance to solve problems. They also will gain insights and practice into the best way to approach and accomplish the culminating project presented in chapter 12 of the textbook.

  This third edition of Motor Learning and Performance expands on the fundamental principles of motor performance and learning, applying theoretical principles to a variety of realistic contexts. It continues to combine a conceptual model of human performance with a problem-based learning approach. This approach provides a comprehensive model to identify effective solutions to a wide range of practical problems in the performance and learning of motor skills. This book is designed so that readers don't need prerequisites in physiology, psychology, statistical methods or other basic sciences in order to understand the material. It provides a fascinating introduction to the field of motor learning and its many practical applications.
