GCSE PE Theory – Lesson 4 Paper 2 - Socio-cultural influences and well-

being in physical activity and sport

Lesson 4 – Finish and recap Mental Preparation

Lesson Title: Motivation and Personality.

CONSOLIDATE– Activity

Activity Direct or Indirect?

A tennis player smashes a return

A sailor cuts across an opponent’s sailing line

A netball player deliberately sticks her elbows out to catch an opponent’s face

A hockey player tackles an opponent, swiping legs with their stick

A football player tackles a player makes contact with the ball and wins possession.

There are two different types of personality

• Introvert

• Extrovert

Can anyone tell me what the difference is, which one is which?

ACTIVATE - Personality Types

INTROVERT

These people do not need a high level of arousal – they become over aroused when over stimulated.

Tend to be shy, quiet and thoughtful individuals.

Tend to play individual sports and are self motivated.

Tend to play sports where: • Concentration/precision (fine skills) is required. • Low arousal is required.

ACTIVATE - Personality Types

EXTROVERT

These people need a high level of arousal – they lack concentration and often seek exciting situations.

Tend to enjoy interactions with others, very sociable, enthusiastic, talkative and prone to boredom when on their own.

Tend to play team sports

Tend to play sports where: • Gross skills and a fast pace is required. • Often leaders in a team.

DEMONSTRATE – Activity

Look at the list of the following activities and descriptive words. Decide whether you think they are introvert or extrovert – tick the appropriate column next to word.

Motivation – The drive to succeed or desire to achieve something.

What types of things can we be motivated by?

ACTIVATE - Motivation

Intrinsic – The drive that comes from within the performer.

• Feeling of pride

• Self-satisfaction

•General achievement

They are driven to achieve something because of the way it makes them feel.

Extrinsic– the drive experienced by a performer when striving to achieve a reward. • Trying to win a reward

• Reward is given by an external source or person

Tangible – certificates, trophies, medals, money Intangible – praise, positive feedback, applause from the

crowd.

Evaluation of types of Motivation

• Intrinsic and extrinsic are often used together.

• Research suggests that intrinsic motivation is more powerful and effective than extrinsic motivation.

Why?

• Performers can become more reliant on cups/trophies

• Intrinsic motivation is more likely to lead to a continued effort and participation

DEMONSTRATE – Activity

Complete the exam questions:

1. What do you understand by the term motivation? (1 mark)

2. What is the difference between intrinsic and extrinsic motivation? (2 marks)

3. Is intrinsic or extrinsic motivation generally regarded as the most beneficial? Explain your answer. (2 marks)

1. The drive to succeed or desire to achieve something.

2. Intrinsic is to have the drive within yourself, e.g. the feeling of winning. Extrinsic motivation is being driven by external factors, i.e. medals or praise form a coach.

3. Intrinsic motivation is considered more powerful than extrinsic. This is because people who are intrinsically motivated are generally going to put in more effort and stay in the sport longer.

MAKE SURE YOU REVISE, MAKE SURE YOU KNOW IT.

CONSOLIDATE – Revision Task

For the next 25 minutes you will be doing INDIVIDUAL revision.

I have three options for you:

1) Use your books and write out keywords and definitions.

2) Complete the mind map with information

3) Write your own notes on lined paper.

You will be allowed to take your books home this week for revision. Please bring them back next lesson.

10. A pass in football in open play is externally paced. True or false?

CONSOLIDATE – Exit Task

Complete this exam question:

Using the stages of the information processing model, analyse how a performer would make a pass in a game of football (6 marks)

This question must be completed and marked, then re-written in order to leave for lunch time. Anyone who gets 5 or 6 out of 6 will get 10 points.

Plenary Answer • Input – sight of the defender moving towards the player

• Decision making – which type of pass to use/ movement to make

• Output – pass selected to make

• Feedback – did you Make a good pass/ kick the ball?

If you have the above information correct you get 4 marks.

For full marks you must have made at least 2 comments that are from below:

• Input) Information from the display – how is the opponent standing, what direction coming from, is there a team mate free to pass to?

• (Input) Selective attention – blocking out everything, eg. noise / other visual stimuli / other than key focus points above, ie. the ball

• (Decision making) Selection of appropriate response from memory – have you dealt with this before / have you seen this a similar type of pass before

• (Decision making) – Recall of relevant pass from the long term memory / executed by short term memory

• (Output) Information sent to muscles to carry out the response – choice of pass/ movement of feet

• Output) Credit use of appropriate muscles for a football kick, ie. quatricepts/ hamstrings

• (Feedback) Received via self (intrinsic and / or others (extrinsic) – did you kick ball / how did it feel / where did it go / did you misread the distance/angle.

Perfect Answer

The first stage of the model is input. The football player will first check his/her environment to assess the situation and use selective attention to block out irrelevant bits of information. They will focus on who to make the pass to. The player will then make a decision about who they will pass to and where, away from the opposition and decide how much power, what type of pass they need to make. They will check their long term memory to see if they have done this before. The brain will then send messages to the muscles to bring about the movement and this is the output. The player will then receive feedback on the pass, was it successful, did their team mate get the ball?

Write your perfect answer…
