App 9 - Applying Motor Control Theories You want to teach a child how to hit a ball with a bat. Respond with multiple ideas under each theory using bullet points. You need at least 3 bullet points under each theory. 1 - What would you do and how would you teach this child from a Schema Theory perspective? I put the ball on a T. I would inform the child to have the eyes focused down on the ball. Next, I would tell the child to rotate their hips with the right hip going towards the ball. This would initiate the knees to turn relative to the toes turning towards the pitcher. Then I would tell the child the child to swing towards the ball which will fire the activation of the triceps/biceps relative to the quads/calves. 2 -What would you do and how would you teach this child from a Dynamical Systems perspective? Link the hands on the bat. The preferred fist on top then the second fist directly below the first. Get in shoulder-width stance beside the plate. Shift the hips to rotate towards the pitcher. Shift your weight from the back leg through to the front leg. Swing the bat at a preferred speed to initiate force that propels the ball.
