The Role of Deliberated Practice in the Acquisition of Expert Performance
The Role of Deliberated
Practice in the Acquisition of Expert Performance
Deliberated
Pratice is a special type of practice that is purposeful and
systematic. It means deliberate
practice requires focused attention
and conducted with the specific goal of
improving performance.
Deliberated
Practice is different with usual practice. So much people think that we want to
expert in a specific skill, we have to do that specific skill continually, Yes actually
that right but that is not deliberated practice.
Practice
just a normal everyday routine that you do to get better at whatever skill
you’re working at whereas Deliberated Practice is going to take some mental
power and a bit more effort than usual because its being focused to improving performance.
It’s mean Practice not makes perfect,
perfect practice that makes perfect. So if you want to expert in specific
skill you can’t only repeated a lot , you have to pay attention your
repetition.
In the book “The Role of Deliberated Practice in the
Acquisition of Expert Performance”Deliberate practice is characterized by
several elements. That is motivation, clarity
target and planer-rehearsal, feedback continuously demanding, and
repetition
Let’s take a look at each of those to better understand what is
mean
1. Motivation
You need to have
enough motivation to deliberated practice. Without enough motivation, you will get
bored and ready to drop. One way to come along motivation is find the Strong Why, why do you have to getting
of the best of this skill
2. Clarity Goals
and Traning Planer
What is the goals of your training? Without clarity targets
and plans you will not achieve anything. For example Kobe Bryant, NBA
basketball player, he has one main target in his training. It is being able to
do three-point throws from any area. His training plan is simple: do 1000
three-point throws every day.
3. Feedback continuously
You need to get information about your performance as soon
as possible. So you know what needs to be improved from your performance. For
example, when Kobe Bryant did the above exercise, every time he missed the
target, he could immediately check body
position, what he thought and hoe he felt. So he can correct it immediately in
the next shot.
4. Repetition
Can you imagine 1000 throws every day? Keep it mind, it’s
not just repeat but repetition with improvements. Focus on what you need to
improve so that your performance gets better.
According Ericsson, an experts ordinarily have similarities in
doing exercise routine
a.
They practice without resting during
one hours
b.
They practice in the morning with
fresh mind
c.
They practice 4-5 time a day , around
one hours
d.
If they don’t rest enough, they can
get exhaustion
Deliberated
Practice is different from ordinary training, not just enough to repeating. It is
needs commitment, focus, effort, without reward immediately and often
unpleasant when you decide to do it.
