Abstract
The advancement of technology and an easy access to it have contributed to everyday use of different technical aids in all aspects of human society as an essential work asset. In the area of education, especially within the area of physical exercise, when a new task is introduced, the most frequently used method is “live” demonstration, which enables smooth information transfer to students. A video demonstration is also very interesting as a means of information transfer. Model learning cannot be considered a simple imitation within a specific area of motor behavior, since it is a process in which a subject observes the model behavior and adjusts it to his/her performance, as a result of interaction (Horn & Williams, 2004). It is an effective method used for learning simple and complex motor tasks. If observation is combined with physical performance of the task, it significantly contributes to the learning of the observed skills (Wulf, Shea, & Lewthwaite, 2010). An expert video demonstration or direct demonstration is the most common way of giving instructions when learning motor tasks (Doussoulin & Rehbein, 2011). The use and practical application of expert video demonstration was confirmed in other areas as well. Research on video demonstration effectiveness in learning different skills, as well as comparison with other ways of learning, has been conducted on different samples of respondents: medical students, nurses, children with developmental difficulties when learning social skills, students with emotional problems in behavior, 12-18 months old children. The main goal of this paper is a review of literature considering video demonstration as a means of information feedback for facilitated learning of certain motor tasks in a particular field of kinesiology.
