@DavidDidau Hi David - it would be great to connect, as there might be an interesting opportunity coming up in Cambodia related to leadership and development in the sports leadership space.
This work led by Juyoung attempts to understand how well we know coach-athlete dialogue based on existing qualitative research in this area @CoachC1@JuyoungRyou@DrDanielRhind

@Paulmcg8@Duarterbparaujo Paul, these ideas have been suggested for some time in the physical education literature but are referred to as relational skills (i.e., throwing and catching, or passing and stopping)

As complicated as it looks…I think the below diagram is crucial for sports coaches to make sense of in their session design and coach behaviours (specifically, explicit instruction)
👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻
It start with attention…attention is the entry point for player learning. Captivate their attention, direct their attention, hold their attention…
Make your activities stretched…but…not so stretched that it overloads your players’ working memories…and make your instructions simple, short, & snappy to prevent overload
Check for understanding by asking players questions about what they’ve just experienced in an activity and test for understanding by setting a task or challenge in an activity relevant to the just-learned information…this improves retention in long-term memory
Prevent forgetting and consolidate memories in long-term memory by continuing to ask players to retrieve the just-learned information (during water breaks, in huddles between activities, at the end of the session)
The above process is my extended take on a model called Cognitive Load Theory which is the basic cognitive architecture of how human’s learn…(note: this is my take alone)

3. The Sport Psych Show podcast episode with @Jattaylor and @Rdtaylor_16 here: https://t.co/z05I56NYAU
Dive into the second part of the series on cognitive load theory where Dr. Stephen Harvey and Dr. Ed Cope explore how to optimize intrinsic load for effective learning.
Learn why spacing out learning sessions and employing retrieval strategies can lead to long-term retention and skill development.

I was fortunate enough to examine two PhD’s with Jim, where he was the external and me the internal. I learnt so much from him and found the whole process such a privilege. Kind, caring and critical are the three words that come to mind.
It is with profound sadness that we recently learned of the passing of Professor Jim Denison; scholar, colleague, mentor and friend. Although Jim was undoubtedly all of these things, he was, of course, much more, both in terms of the breadth and depth of his actions.
