(T/F)

forgotten. (T/F)
True
Students can expect a slower rate of learning as they progress through the 3 phases of golf skill learning.
(T/F)

motivation. (T/F)
False
3 Phases of Golf Skill Learning
1) Early (cognitive), 2) Intermediate (associative), 3) Advanced (autonomous)
Memory
An internal representation of an event, experience, or something learned, and is about its storage and
retrieval.
Retention
Persistence or durability over time of something learned.
A student's improved performance by the end of the first lesson is evidence that learning has occurred.
(T/F)
True
,As learning takes place there are 4 performance characteristics observed. What are they?
According to the Challenge Point Framework, the level of difficulty should be increased as a player
improves or becomes familiar with how swing movements feel. (T/F)
True
Changes in performance that result from increased motivation are suitable as evidence for learning?
(T/F)
False
One-minute is about the short term memory storage capacity for new cognitive information before it is
lost due to inattention? (T/F)
True
Performance production measures are the result of the movement. (T/F)
True
Intrinsic Feedback
Comes solely from the student and arises as a natural consequence of the performed skill.
Augmented Feedback
Received from a source external to the performer that supplements the intrinsic feedback.
Performance is:
Observable Behavior
Learning is not:
Observable Behavior
What is an indication that learning has occurred?
When a relatively permanent change in performance has occurred.
Outcome Measures
simply focus on what happens as a result of the movement.
What happens to the student in the early phase of golf skill learning?
The student may have cognitive self-talk aloud, lack confidence, and fear of failure.

1)Explain and demonstrate the new skill or correction, 2)CLEARLY point out appropriate cues,
3)Encourage students to exercise patience in learning and 4) Encourage positive and rational self talk.
, How does a student transfer golf skills learned in the cognitive phase to play on the course in the
intermediate phase?
Transfer Practice
What would be a Transfer Test to determine learning?
If a student has been chipping on flat lie, move the student to uneven lies.
What would be a Retention Test to determine learning?
If the student takes a lesson and then practices three times that week, how will the skill hold up after
two weeks with no practice.

Which exercises are best for evaluating a juniors' movement patterns?
Problem solving and discovery
