What are the advantages of whole practice? | Helps create specific images that can be stored as a motor programme in the LTM More realistic Helps produce positive transfer Makes skill consistent |
What are the disadvantages of whole practice? | May place unnecessary demands on performer who may not be able to cope with all aspects of the skill at once Could induce fatigue May be too much info to process |
What is whole-part-whole practice? | Performers attempt to perform skill as a whole then break down the skill into subroutines before going back to performing the skill as a whole |
