Based on the latest field research, Motor Learning and Development explains how motor development affects motor learning and provides a framework for establishing programmes that provide skill acquisition for all learners.
This unique, undergraduate text serves as a primary resource for integrating this wide range of subject material into a single course.
Motor Learning and Development examines the development of movement skill in humans from infancy to older adulthood and investigates how differing motor, cognitive and social abilities affect when, why and how an individual learns motor skills.
It provides an excellent framework for understanding both motor learning and motor development, as well as the ways in which each affects the other.
By providing a thorough understanding of the factors that drive the development of motor skills throughout the life span, Motor Learning and Development assists both student and practicing teachers in providing movement skills to learners of any age and skill level.
