Explain why overhead clear is considered to be a weakness Homework – Wednesday 28 th November Homework – Wednesday 28 th November Homework – Friday 30 th November Homework – Friday 30 th November

3. Cognitive Stage Even although some of the subroutines involved in the skill maybe new, it does not mean that you are at the beginner level in badminton. Beginner Level Badminton Player During the planning stage, you find out what the skill involves – work out the subroutines. Preparation Action Recovery After establishing the different subroutines you make your first attempts at learning the skill Errors are likely to be common during the planning stage. As a result of this you will need lots of advice and encouragement

4. SQA Intermediate 2 2006 Question 5(a) Choose an activity and a skill or technique. 5(a)Explain the benefits of considering a model/skilled performance when learning or developing this skill or technique. (4)

5. Benefits of model performer? Why ? We discussed three reasons on Fri – what were they….

6. Model performers and the improving of performance As you attempt to learn a new activity or improve your performance, model performers can help you improve your knowledge and understanding of what it means to perform effectively. The idea is that, by seeing someone else perform to a high standard, you will get a clear picture of what it is you are striving to do. It may be that a fellow pupil is able to play to a high standard providing you with ideas about how you can improve your performance. Able performers may need to watch a top level performer to get an idea of how to be a more effective player.

7. Model performers and the performance of difficult skills and techniques Discuss with your shoulder partner the below topic… Consider how you could use a model performer to develop your understanding of a complex skill Think of a situation where you have used a model performer to help you learn a new skill or develop your understanding of a skill

8. Model performers and the performance of difficult skills and techniques In badminton, some skills and techniques are difficult to carry out effectively, for example, a backhand clear.

12. Model performer movement analysis / observation schedule It is not always necessary to observe a model performance to improve your knowledge and understanding of what it means to perform a skill effectively. You can use an observation schedule which breaks a skill down, into its three phases of action (1. Preparation. 2. Action. 3. Recovery), and explains in words the small movements (subroutines) that make up the skill. By breaking the skill down you are able to learn and understand the small movements that make up the actual skill. You can also use the observation schedule to make comparisons between your performance and that of the model performer. Helping you identify your strengths and weaknesses.
