FEEDBACK &
SKILL LEARNING(Chapter 3, Pages 52 – 54)
What is Feedback?
All the information an athlete receives about the
performance of a skill, either during the performance or at its completion (Amezdroz et
al, 2010).
Types of Feedback
Feedback is integral to the learning process and
includes
Intrinsic Feedback
Extrinsic Feedback(which is divided into two main categories
Knowledge of results
Knowledge of performance
Motivating Feedback(which involves two
types of reinforcement)
Positive reinforcement
Negative reinforcement
Types of feedback – Intrinsic Feedback
Is information that comes from the senses both during and after a movement pattern (Amezdroz et al, 2010).
The information primary comes from the senses within the muscles, joints and from the movement itself.
This information sent from within the body is called proprioception. The proprioception of a movement
immediately indicates the error.
Example: When a shuttle is swung at hard, you may think it is moving quicker than it actually is, the
resulting movement is over-exaggeration
Types of feedback – Extrinsic Feedback
Is feedback that is received at the completion of a movement (Amezdroz et al, 2010).
It is also called augmented feedback.
It is feedback that is received from an external source such as a teacher , coach or video but usually come in
the form of verbal feedback.
It is divided into Knowledge of results and Knowledge of performance
Types of feedback – Extrinsic Feedback
Knowledge of results Knowledge of performance
Is a form of extrinsic feedback that indicates the outcome of the performance rather than the movements that brought about the performance (Amezdroz et al, 2010).
Received from an external source such as a teacher , coach or video.
Usually comes in the form of verbal feedback.
Information indicates the degree of success of the movement.
Example: Shuttle landed out; shuttle hit net
Is a form of extrinsic feedback that indicates the technical correctness or quality of the movement (Amezdroz et al, 2010).
Received from an external source such as a teacher , coach or video
Usually comes in the form of verbal feedback.
Coaches use this type more frequently.
Example: racquet face too open; shuttle contact was late; lunge stride too long/short
Types of feedback – Motivating Feedback
Positive reinforcement Negative reinforcement
Is an increase in the future frequency of a behaviour due to the addition of a stimulus immediately following a response (Amezdroz et al, 2010).
One of the major aims of feedback.
Positive reinforcement immediately after an athlete has performed will encourage the athlete to repeat the performance.
Advantage: consistent and beneficial changes in behaviour.
Examples: Well played; good shot
Is an increase in the future frequency of a behaviour when the consequence is the removal of an aversive stimulus (Amezdroz et al, 2010).
A negative reinforcer is removed
Examples: Practicing badminton to get a higher grade (low grade is the negative reinforcer)Hitting a massive smash to avoid losing the point
