For this assignment we are to observe a physical activity of some sort, record the feedback from coach, player, environment, etc. and place it in categories.
I chose to observe my younger brother's wrestling practice. Which is something very new to me. It took place in the middle school gym back home in Dawson County.
Feedback:
1) Coach encourages them to keep up good work.
2) Coach reads off mile time to wrestlers and encourages them to keep up pace.
3) Wrestlers encourage each other to keep running.
4) Coach demonstrates new move to wrestlers.
5) Coach walks around observing individual practice of new move and tells wrestler ways to improve or confirms that they are performing correctly.
6) For more advanced wrestlers coach reads out time it takes to pin other wrestler
7) Wrestlers cheer each other on
8) Coach pulls wrestler aside to explain boundaries of wrestling mat and how to use them to their advantage.
9) Encouragement from coach to run outside of practice to better individual time
10) Wrestlers are told what to look forward to for next practices and how to practice strengths and better their weaknesses.
Categorization:
Intrinsic: 2, 5
Extrinsic: 1, 3
Knowledge of Result: 2, 5
Knowledge of Performance: 4, 8
Descriptive: 5, 8
Prescriptive: 5, 8
Discussion:
Motivation: 1, 3, 7; All of these extrinsic feedbacks encouraged and motivated the wrestlers to push themselves and to better their individual performance.
Reinforcement: 4, 5, 9; These all reinforce the wrestlers actions by letting them know that what they are doing is correct and to continue to do so.
Information: 4, 8; These two showed and verbalized to the wrestlers what was to be done and how to do it. It them allowed them to know whether or not they performed correctly.
Dependence: 4, 5, 8; All of these have a high possibility of becoming a dependence factor. The wrestlers may being to rely on the coach to continually instruct them in order to perform.
