1. A process associated with the coordinated contraction of muscles due to the transmission of impulses sent from the motor cortex to its motor units. It is “the process of initiating, directing, and grading purposeful voluntary movement”

2. The aim is to reduce the cognitive demand during a skill or task i.e. learning to drive and talk at the same time.

3. Is the ability to develop a relatively permanent change in motor skills from novice to skilled performance through practice or experience by engaging in activities that are currently beyond an individual’s capabilities.

4. It is when complex processes in the brain occur in response to practice or experience of a skill resulting in changes in the central nervous system that allow for production of a new motor skill.

12. The person, the task, and the environment interact to influence motor behaviour and learning. The interaction of the person with any given environment provides perceptual information used to control movement.
