Haibach et al. (kinesiology, sport studies, and physical education, College at Brockport, State U. of New York, and McGill U., Canada) explain how motor development and motor learning interact and affect each other. They describe the factors that affect the development of motor skills across the life span to help undergraduate students and professionals in physical education and related fields learn how to teach movement skills to learners at any age or skill level. They discuss the development of movement skills from infancy to older adulthood and how having different motor, cognitive, and social abilities influences how, when, and why an individual learns motor skills. Discussion of the theoretical foundation for motor development and motor learning and how to design developmentally appropriate movement programs is included.
