This document outlines the three stages of learning a motor skill according to Fitts and Posner's theory from 1967: the cognitive stage, associative stage, and autonomous stage. In the cognitive stage, the learner understands and learns the skill through instruction and feedback, performing slowly and making frequent errors. In the associative stage, the learner refines the skill through practice, reducing errors and paying attention to feedback. In the autonomous stage, the skilled motor behavior becomes automatic and can be performed without conscious attention.

UNDERSTANDIN G EACH STAGE
1. COGNITIVE STAGE - Understanding & learning
You learn what is needed to perform a skill. Frequent errors occur Attention to decisions & step by step procedures Have a high attentional demands (lots of Thinking) Tend to perform the skill slowly REQUIRES A LOT OF FEEDBACK (teacher,
THE BEST WAY TO LEARN IN THE COGNITIVE STAGE Have skill demonstrated ensures a visual aid and mental picture Allow time for practice and by re demonstrating the skill For the teachers/coach/peers dont overload the learner with information and use short cue words The neurons in the motor control section of the brain respond when an action is observed
STEP CYCLE
2. ASSOCIATIVE STAGE -Process
Refine the accuracy and consistency of the motor skill There is a reduce numbers of errors Performer gradually gets more successful & fluent Learner begins to make use of intrinsic or kinesthetic feedback Begin to pay attention to the concurrent feedback (During
The stage is normally longer than cognitive stage The stage of rapid improvement Skilled actions get smoother, more accurate, better timed, & more efficient Begin to use more complex and detailed cues Learner performs and practices the skill under a variety of situations

3. AUTONOMOUS STAGE - Automatic
Some performers may only reach the autonomous stage after many years of practice, others may not reach this stage Sequencing ad timing of the subroutines is automatic; less conscious attention Process larger chunks of information that occurs without attention Performer analyzing own performance and adjust own actions High level of smoothness, efficacy, accuracy is performed without stress
