| KN465 | MOTOR CONTROL AND LEARNING | 2013 | 2 | Kinesiology | 3.0 (BS=0.0, ET=0.0, MA=0.0) | ||||
| SCOPE | |||||||||
| This course will present the principles underlying the control and learning of motor skills. Central, neural, and sensory mechanisms that facilitate or inhibit the production, control, acquisition, retention, and transfer of motor skills will be discussed. Emphasis is given to a sound theoretical base from which to design and implement optimal learning and performance conditions. Motor control variables such as motor programs, brain systems, the spinal cord, musculoskeletal factors, and visual systems are explored. Motor learning/performance variables such as transfer, modeling, feedback, practice schedule, mental practice, memory, and attention will be discussed. The course employs lecture, a literature review on a topic of interest in the field, and research methods to understand motor behavior principles. | |||||||||
