Hello students, in this question we have to describe two theories that attempt to explain the contextual interference effect.
00:19
And next is to choose two sports and indicate how to teach the skills associated with each using bluffed, serial and random practice.
00:36
So let us begin.
00:37
First, about the two theories.
00:41
First is the elaboration theory or elaboration hypothesis and the forgetting hypothesis.
00:54
The elaboration hypothesis suggests that the interference caused by practicing multiple skills in a random order leads to better learning and retention.
01:11
This theory proposes that the interference forces learners to actively engage in the cognitive process of comparing and contrasting the different skills, which enhances their understanding and retention.
01:23
On the other hand, the forgetting hypothesis suggests that the interference caused by practicing in a random order multiple skills leads to forgetting and subsequent relearning.
01:37
This theory proposes that the interference disrupts the consolidation process leading to forgetting and the subsequent relearning strengthens the memory trace, resulting in better retention.
01:55
So both the theories are talking about retention.
02:00
Now coming to the second question for teaching skills with two sports using bluffed, serial and random practice.
02:10
So for that, let's consider basketball and swimming.
02:21
For basketball, if we were to teach shooting skills, we could use blocked practice by having learners repeatedly practice shooting.
02:31
Shooting from same spot on the court.
02:37
This allows them to focus on the specific technique and develop muscle memory.
02:45
For serial practice, this is for blocked...
