Guidance
Guidance is required in the process of transmitting information about a skill to the learner. The form this guidance takes can be either visual, verbal or manual. A combination of all of these forms of guidance are usually most successful.
Visual Guidance
This is the use of a demonstration to help guide the performer to form a mental picture and reproduce the movement. The demonstration, or model, must be as perfect as possible and must be realistic. Forms of demonstration other than live models can be used, for example photos, diagrams (although very static) and video. The display can also be enhanced by increasing the visual stimulus, for example placing targets on the court.
Verbal Guidance
This is thought to be the least useful style of guidance when used in isolation. It is most often used in conjunction with visual guidance. The teacher provides cues for the athlete to remind them of parts of the skill, for example, saying "keep your eyes on the ball" to a batter, just before a ball is bowled in rounders. It is important to consider, when using verbal guidance, if the performer understands what is being said, if they can remember the information being given and if they can translate this into an action.
Manual Guidance
Manual guidance can come from another person or an object to help the performer learn a movement whilst building confidence and getting a sense of how it should feel. Examples of guidance are a teacher moving a students arms through the required motion for a tennis shot, and using armbands or a float when learning to swim. The kind of guidance where the teacher guides the student through a movement is known as forced response. This is useful to give the player a feel for the movement although if it is used continuously they may become dependant on it or loose motivation.
