Chapter 14 Augmented
Two Types of PerformanceRelated Information () Task-intrinsic : sensory-
perceptual Augmented : adding to or enhancing task-intrinsic
Two Types of Augmented Knowledge of Results (KR): externally
presented information about the outcome of performing a skill or about achieving the goal of the performance Knowledge of Performance (KP): movement characteristics that led to the performance outcome Examples of augmented are listed in Table 14.1
The Roles of Augmented in Skill Acquisition Plays two roles in skill learning
process: • Facilitates achievement of the action goal of the skill • Motivates the learner to continue striving toward a goal
Reasons Why Augmented is Essential for Learning Some skill situations do not make
critical sensory available to the person There exists the possibility that a person may not have available sensory pathways needed to detect is provided from the sensory system, however, the person cannot use the
Reasons Why Augmented May Not be Needed for Skill Acquisition Some skills provide task intrinsic
A detectable external referent can be observed in motor skills Research has shown that augmented can enhance as well as hinder skill development and learning
Five Issues Related to the Content of Augmented 1. Information about errors vs. 2. 3. 4.
5.
correct aspects of performance KR vs. KP Qualitative vs. quantitative information Augmented based on error size Erroneous augmented
Types of Knowledge of Performance Verbal KP • Two types Descriptive KP Prescriptive KP
Videotape as augmented Movement kinematics as augmented
Bio as augmented
Concurrent Augmented Augmented provided
while a person is performing a skill Effects of concurrent augmented on learning • Two general types of effects Negative learning effect Enhances skill learning (positive effect)
Terminal Augmented that is provided after a person
has completed the performance of a skill Two intervals of time associated with terminal augmented • KR delay interval • Post KR interval
Both require a minimum length of time Engaging in activity during these
intervals can hinder, benefit, or have no effect upon skill learning
Techniques that Reduce
