Learning and performance curves

Performance curve- not learning curve Learning-

Relatively permanent change in behaviour brought about as a result of

experience or practise Just measuring performance can not tell

us why that performance has changed.

LEARNING AND PERFORMANCE CURVESMcGill-theorist said that most learning research shows 4 general learning curves, these display how the learning is progressing e.g.

.

Linear-where equal amounts of progress occur with each performance

Learning and performance curves

Curve of positive acceleration – here small gains are made early on in the learning then rapid increase later on

Curve of negative acceleration – here Curve of negative acceleration – here large improvements are made early on then tailing of later on …..

Learning and performance curves

5

Learning plateau

little early improvement

Period of rapid improvement

no improvement

Performance deteriorates

Length of time or number of trials

Quality of performance

Learning and performance curves

S shaped curve…. A combo curve showing early progress with a steady then rapid improvement resulting in a levelling off.

Plateau ..

Page 7: Performance curve- not learning curve  Learning- Relatively permanent change in behaviour brought about as a result of experience or practise  Just

Learning Plateau

Learner stops progressing and no improvement in skill is evident.

Performance reaches a plateau

WHY?

Page 8: Performance curve- not learning curve  Learning- Relatively permanent change in behaviour brought about as a result of experience or practise  Just

WHY?

Not physically ready to go to the next stage

Learner lacks the ability to develop of modify current skills

Earlier faulty skills learning means leaner is unable to master the next step.

Fatigue Boredom Motivation- lacks the desire to move on Poor coaching/ teaching

Page 9: Performance curve- not learning curve  Learning- Relatively permanent change in behaviour brought about as a result of experience or practise  Just

What can be done?

Suggest ways you could help Happy overcome his performance plateau

Page 10: Performance curve- not learning curve  Learning- Relatively permanent change in behaviour brought about as a result of experience or practise  Just

What can be done?

Distributed sessions/ rest/ recovery Resetting of goals/ more challenging Extrinsic rewards/ praise/ encouragement Mental rehearsal/ visualisation Feedback/ guidance Break skill down/ whole part whole Ensure performer focuses on appropriate cues Make practise fun/ varied/ enjoyable Make them fitter Better quality coaching Explain concept of plateau to performer

Exam Question

Games players may find that their skill performance reaches a plateau.

Suggest possible solutions that a coach could use to minimise a learning plateau (4

marks)

Games players practise to improve their skills. Improvements in skill performance may be identified through repeated attempts at the

skill over a period of time.

Figure 2 shows a typical performance curve, where skill performance is recorded over time.

Using Figure 2, explain what is happening in relation to skilled performancebetween point A and point B. (2 marks)

Suggest possible solutions to limit what is happening between point A and point B in Figure 2.(4 marks)

Answers

No improvement/levels off (Learning) plateau;
