This document discusses principles of skill learning, including different types of skills like perceptual, cognitive, motor, and perceptual motor skills. It also classifies skills as gross or fine, open or closed, and examines theories of memory, motor programs, schemas, types of practice like massed vs distributed, order of practice such as blocked vs random vs serial, variable vs fixed practice, mental practice, and intrinsic vs extrinsic motivation.
