Implicit Learning and Motor Skill Acquisition formed (chunking) without conscious awareness. Implicit Learning: Acquiring Knowledge Unconsciously  Understanding Learning  Shorter SRTs indicate faster execution of the entire action sequence.  Replacement of the learned sequence with a new one leads to a rise in SRT, showing that the whole action sequence was learned implicitly. Implicit  Implicit learning involves acquiring knowledge unintentionally, without awareness of the learning process.  In contrast to explicit knowledge acquisition, implicit learning lacks conscious awareness. Cognitive Models of Learning  Cognitive Models Learning Phases Learning Implicit Learning Sequences of  Spatially representations transformed into commands.  Working memoryindependent representations (e.g., motor programs) develop for later motor skill control. Action Complex action sequences can be acquired implicitly.  The serial-reaction-time (SRT) task is used to test implicit learning.  Participants respond to stimuli with keystrokes.  Associations between sequence elements are Early Cognitive models suggest early learning phases rely on limited information processing resources (e.g., working memory). of  of  Examples include language acquisition in children and learning soccer skills "on the street." Side Story: Implicit Action Sequences   coded are motor Designing Teaching and Learning Processes in Sports  Learning Processes in Sports  Learning in sports covers motor skill acquisition, rule knowledge, and understanding.  tactical Focus on motor learning processes for acquiring motor skills. Learning Phases and Motor Learning Processes  Motor Learning Processes and Phases  Motor learning processes involve changes in memory relevant for motor control.  Representations change in terms of behavioral competence, coding, neural substrates, and mode of control.  Early and late learning phases are characterized by different neural substrates and control modes.  Dual-task costs decrease as learning progresses.
