    The constraints-based approach to motor learning : implications for a non-linear pedagogy in sport and physical education

    No full text
    Recently, a constraints- led approach has been promoted as a framework for understanding how children and adults acquire movement skills for sport and exercise (see Davids, Button & Bennett, 2008; Araújo et al., 2004). The aim of a constraints- led approach is to identify the nature of interacting constraints that influence skill acquisition in learners. In this chapter the main theoretical ideas behind a constraints- led approach are outlined to assist practical applications by sports practitioners and physical educators in a non- linear pedagogy (see Chow et al., 2006, 2007). To achieve this goal, this chapter examines implications for some of the typical challenges facing sport pedagogists and physical educators in the design of learning programmes

    Hydrachna papilligera K. Viets, 1919 Species incerta Material examined: Holotype deutonymph SMF 941, Germany, Braunschweig, Teich bei Weddel, 8.7. 1910 Kühne. Discussion: This species was described from a single deutonymph. Later, the author himself proposed its synonymy to H. skorikowi (see K. Viets 1936). In view of the difficulties of associating nymphs to conspecific adults, it must be considered a species incerta.Published as part of Davids, Kees, Sabatino, Antonio Di, Gerecke, Reinhard, Gledhill, Terence & Smit, Harry, 2005, On the taxonomy of water mites (Acari: Hydrachnidia) described from the Palaearctic, part 1: Hydrachnidae, Limnocharidae and Eylaidae, pp. 36-64 in Zootaxa 1061 on page 48, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.17018
