Motor Learning[edit | edit source]
Definition[edit | edit source]
1. " The process of acquiring a skill by which the learner, through practice and assimilation, refines and makes automatic the desired movement".
2. "An internal neurologic process that results in the ability to produce a new motor task". [1]
