2. Choose 1 Type of transfer of learning, 1 theory
of learning, and 1 theory of transfer of
learning. Give an example of each in relation
to your event/field of sports.
3. Discuss your answer.
 Types of Transfer
• Proactive Transfer
A skill learnt in the past affects a skill currently being learnt or to be
learnt in the future

For Example: You have many experienced in a big competitions and

currently you can play well and execute well.
 Theories of learning
• Trial and Error Learning
We have all heard of finding a solution by trial and error. It involves
testing various methods of achieving a goal until you find one that
works. This plays a large part in Operant Conditioning. This can be a
slow process.

Example: If the coach said that you will run fast and you can’t do
well, you will try and try until you succeed.
 Transfer of motor learning
• Response Generalisation
When a performer has well learned a skill they can begin to adapt
the skill to vary it

Example: An example is in cricket where a bowler will vary his or her

delivery to try to unsettle the batsman.
