Abstract

Little attention has been paid to systematic study and exploitation of the learning theory in terms of the creation of motor skills, for the teaching-learning theory hitherto has placed great emphasis upon the transmission-function of kinetic culture as its central problem. The motor-construction-learning theory is a newly exploited learning method. This motor-construction-theory has been devised through integrating various theories in the proper fields of physiology, learning psychology and kinesiology. This theory is based upon the supposition that the motor-construction-learning consists of the seven types of perception and recognition in motor skills. These types are (1) segmentation, (2) spatial reversibility, (3) phrase, (4) pattern, (5) combination, (6) structure, and (7) integration. In the present study, an experiment was conducted to demonstrate what practical and adaptable effectiveness it will lead to, provided that this theoretical hypothesis is materialized and used as a teaching learning method. As the result, the motor-construction-learning theory has proved to generally promote motor constructive ability, which in turn suggests not only an innovation of a new viewpoint on kinesiology but also creation of motor skills in learners.
