  2. Motor skill - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_skill

    Motor skills are movements and actions of the muscles. There are two major groups of motor skills: Gross motor skills [2] – require the use of large muscle groups in our legs, torso, and arms to perform tasks such as: walking, balancing, and crawling. The skill required is not extensive and therefore are usually associated with continuous tasks.

  3. Motor learning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_learning

    Motor learning has been applied to stroke recovery and neurorehabilitation, as rehabilitation is generally a process of relearning lost skills through practice and/or training. [21] Although rehabilitation clinicians utilize practice as a major component within an intervention, a gap remains between motor control and motor learning research and ...

  4. Physical literacy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_literacy

    Many current physical education programs only focus on one or two aspects of physical literacy, such as athletic development, community involvement, fundamental movement skills, or sport-specific skills; this is a good start however to capture the holistic nature of physical literacy it is important to bring all of these things together, along ...

  5. Motor program - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_program

    Based on an estimate of the current context, a controller is chosen to generate the appropriate motor command. This modular system can be used to describe both motor control and motor learning and requires adaptable internal forward and inverse models. Forward models describe the forward or causal relationship between system inputs, predicting ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Motor_skills

    Motor learning is the relatively permanent change in the ability to perform a skill as a result of practice or experience. Performance is an act of executing a motor skill. The goal of motor skill is to optimize the ability to perform the skill at the rate of success, precision, and to reduce the energy consumption required for performance.

  7. Fine motor skill - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fine_motor_skill

    Motor skills are movements and actions of the bone structures. [1] Typically, they are categorised into two groups: gross motor skills and fine motor skills. Gross motor skills are involved in movement and coordination of the arms, legs, and other large body parts. They involve actions such as running, crawling and swimming.

  8. Talk:Motor skill - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Motor_skill

    A motor skill is a skill that requires an organism to utilize their skeletal muscles effectively. Motor skills and motor control depend upon the proper functioning of the brain, skeleton, joints, and nervous system. Most motor skills are learned in early childhood, although disabilities can affect motor skills development.

  9. Motor adaptation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_adaptation

    Motor adaptation, a form of motor learning, is the process of acquiring and restoring locomotor patterns (e.g. leg coordination patterns) through an error-driven learning process. This type of adaptation is context-dependent and hence, is specific to the environment in which the adaptation occurred.
