PGA Level 1 INTRODUCTION TO
TEACHING questions with complete
solutions
Golf skill learning is - correct answer ✔✔process where cognitive-motor
strategies emerge through practice and experience.
The amount and permanency of these neural changes - correct answer
✔✔increase as physical practice and
experience increases.
Major changes to completely rebuild a swing require - correct answer
✔✔100% commitment from the student to doing whatever needs to be
done to learn the corrections,which undoubtedly will include an
extensive amount of practice.
Actions that reflect improvement in pre- and post-shot routines as a
result - correct answer ✔✔of instruction and practice
Learning is a process that occurs - correct answer ✔✔within a student
(specifically, in the nervous system) and cannot be observed directly.
,EARLY (COGNITIVE) PHASE - correct answer ✔✔The students' main goal
in the early phase of learning is to understand the concept of how to
perform the skill.
Students do not know the relevant cues on
which to focus attention during skill demonstrations, - correct answer
✔✔which is why the cues must be clearly pointed out by the teacher.
The actual cognitive-motor strategy of the skill has several different
names, - correct answer ✔✔but for the purposes of this course it will
be called a motor program or plan.
A motor program can be thought of as - correct answer ✔✔a sequence
of general instructions that a student's nervous and muscular systems
must carry out for the successful production of the movements that
make up the skill.
As the student listens to the introduction and explanation of the skill
and watches the demonstration, - correct answer ✔✔he or she begins
to develop a program of instructions.
The transition from the early to intermediate phase - correct answer
✔✔occurs when students understand the skill sufficiently to perform
the skill well enough to begin practicing it.
, The intermediate phase of learning is a time when the new skill or
correction - correct answer ✔✔is practiced with relevant feedback and
further instruction, to learn to integrate previously developed
movement patterns (that is, old neural circuits) with new
movement patterns (that is, new neural circuits).
Another goal of this phase is to learn how to transfer the learned golf
skills - correct answer ✔✔to play on the golf course.
During the intermediate phase, cognitive control over and attention to
the execution of the
movements that make up the skill gradually - correct answer
✔✔decrease as the amount of practice increases.
The intermediate phase begins to merge into the advanced phase -
correct answer ✔✔when students begin to control the execution of the
skill more autonomously and perform the movement patterns that
make up the skill properly and consistently.
ADVANCED (AUTONOMOUS) PHASE - correct answer ✔✔Students have
at least four goals during this phase of learning.
