About this Unit
In 2011 this unit will be replaced by 400886 - Motor Control and Skill Acquisition. Motor Control and Learning is an investigation of the physiological and psychological processes involved in both the control and the learning of movement. As such, it considers the control mechanisms which are innate to the learner, how these mechanisms change by virtue of both maturation and experience, and how the latter type of changes may be facilitated by manipulation of the learning environment.
