SUMMARY OF THE THEORIES

1. Deliberate practice (Ericsson)

The nature of practices activities engaged in plays a decisive role in the development of expertise

Practice activity contribute to develop performance aspects if they allow feedback and repetition

Require motivation to improve performance and engaged in sustained efforts

Require time and energy

Require access to teachers, coaches, training material and facilities

Research mostly done in competitive domain such as music, chess and sports

Domain specify the training design

Deliberate practice vs experience

Deliberate practice: skilled performance and experience are not enough to acquire superiority in a

domain and automaticity should be counteracted by achieving high-level control of performance that allows

further improvements to be made

2. The workplace curriculum

Certain sequences where learner engage, a course to be run

Set of experiences that are organized and are the result of deliberation involving a
range of stakeholders and consideration of perspectives about what should be
learned and through what means that learning should be proceed.
