William Hoffman • Walden University • Richard W. Riley School of Education and Leadership • EdD Student • EDUC 8101-2 Learning Theories and the Kick
A. Historical significance 1. The student will be shown the history associated with an athletic technique. 2. Although the individual technique will not be broken down, each student will begin to grasp an understanding that athletic techniques are governed by laws that have been studied for centuries. B. Practical significance 1. The student will be shown various learning theories as they evolved and how each one may be applied to the athletic technique. 2. The student will be expected to grasp one-several of the learning theories and be able to utilize the theory(s) in their own individual coaching style. 3. Players may also grasp various learning theories and apply them to their own individual technique. Learning Objectives
Archimedes“Give me a place to stand on and I can move the earth”
Law of Inertia • Force = Mass x Acceleration • Law of action/reaction Newton’s Three Laws
Behaviorism • Operant Conditioning • Discovery • Experiential • Humanist • VMBR Learning theories and the art of kicking a football.
Acts get stronger with positive reinforcement. “the idea that bonds between stimulus and response take the form of neural connections. Learning involves the "stamping in" of connections, forgetting involves "stamping out" connections” (Cooper, n.d.). EDWARD THORNDIKE’S“Connectionism”
Law of Effect a) Responses to a situation that are followed by satisfaction are strengthened; and b) Responses that are followed by discomfort are weakened(Human Intelligence, 2007). • Law of Readiness a series of responses can be chained together to satisfy some goal which will result in annoyance if blocked (Tip, n.d.). • Law of Exercise The law of exercise specifies that the connection was established because the S-R pairing occurred many times (the law of effect) and was rewarded (law of effect) as well as forming a single sequence (law of readiness) (Tip, n.d.). THORNDIKE’S THREE LAWS
SATISFACTION • Improvement through reward, immediate feedback. • Repetition will strengthen learning. Law of Effect
learning is dependent on the learners readiness to act • a series of responses can be chained together to satisfy some goal which will result in annoyance if blocked Law of Readiness
Come to practice ready to learn. • Explanation of material will be dealt with in the following fashion. • Visualization- Players will be shown the proper technique • Explanation- Material and techniques will be presented orally • Demonstration- Proper execution by one of the accomplished players Law of Readiness
PROPER SPEED • ½ speed for understanding • ¾ speed for confidence • Full speed for perfection Law of Exercise
“the behavior is followed by a consequence, and the nature of the consequence modifies the organism's tendency to repeat the behavior in the future.” A behavior followed by a reinforcing stimulus results in an increased probability of that behavior occurring in the future” (Boeree, C.G., 1998). Operant Conditioning
Techniques are broken down from simple to complex. • A vivid picture should occur. Discovery Learning
David Kolb Kolb’s Cycle Experiential Learning
Abraham Maslow Carl Rogers HumanisticLearning
Have the philosophies of learning changed throughout time? Conclusion
As the world around us changes, will we constantly be in a learning process? As the World Turns…
1. How would Edward Thorndike coach a kicker? • 2. Let’s assume a kicker gets homesick and wants to drop out of school. What advice do you think Abraham Maslow would have for him? • 3. How would you explain VMBR or mental rehearsal to someone? • 4. The game is tied and you are the coach. What do you tell the kicker before he attempts the game winning field goal? What learning theorist would it parallel? TEST
