Journal Title: Antropomotoryka. Journal of Kinesiology and Exercise Sciences - Year 2011, Vol 21, Issue 56

Abstract

[b]Introduction.[/b] How to assess relative advantages of any theory of learning and teaching motor activities bearing in mind a wide range of alternatives? Can we choose the best one evaluating on the basis of two compulsory functions: explanatory and predictive? What criteria should be established to evaluate particular motor learning theory as such?[b]Aim the study.[/b] To analyze selected theories of learning and teaching motor actions using as tools six evaluation criteria and two compulsory functions: explanatory and predictive that every theory should meet.[b]Methods.[/b] Developing a literature review focused on viewpoints of Adams (1987); Belej (1994); Bogen (1985); Czabański (1998); Frömel (1999); Gordeeva (1995); Hossner and Künzell (2003); Pertyński (2008); Pöhlmann (1986); Raczek (2010); Schmidt (1988) as a field to conduct deeper analysis of selected theories of learning and teaching motor activities. Considering the following theories: the theory of conditioned reflexes, activity theory, association theory, behaviorism, Gestalt psychology, the Bernstein (and his successors) theory of motor structure, prescriptive, emergent etc.[b]Results.[/b] Structured assessment of theories of learning and teaching motor activities should be conducted on the basis of six criteria: 1) verification, 2) internal compliance, 3) heuristic value, 4) economics, 5) wide meaning of the phenomenon, 6) functional significance. [b]Conclusions.[/b] Formulating the advantages and disadvantages of particular theories in the light of six precise criteria is useful to 1) choose one of the many/few theories to explain and predict the problems of learning various classes of movements, 2) compare old and new/grounded theories with one another, 3) determine how accurately they treat the recognized problems and issues belonging to this matter and also to what extent the prospects for understanding are yet unknown possibilities.
