New paper out looking at how to integrate ecological dynamics for developing and assessing sport technology also in the context of commercialisation. A lot of the ideas around enskillment from @CarlWoods25 kickstarted this effort. doi.org/10.1177/174795…

New paper out: 'The Impact of Functional Movement Variability and Movement Creativity on Sport Climbing Performance' Here we found links between the sheer number of ways a test route could be climbed and performance on a separate new route: dx.doi.org/10.1002/ejsc.7…

Today's Sarcopenia Workshop was a success! Thanks to Dr. Donny Camera (Exercise Physiologist) and Dr. Stephen Keenan (Dietitian) from Swinburne University of Technology, and @TimGrove22 & Dr Dominic Orth @Bruneluni for their valuable insights! #Sarcopenia

Big cheers up to @Swinburne School of Health Sciences for funding our project to lead establishing multimodal concussion monitoring in youth contact sport @Swinburne. (looking forward to the wok ahead with Alexandra Gaillard, @PE_Coaching, @DonnyMCamera)

Exploring some @wattbike data from a learning intervention during HIIT-w/ @DonnyMCamera @NickolasWaldron Dr Ben Bullock Here participants practice achieving a target average Watts across repeated bouts in the context of an HIIT intervention - nice data from these systems

Big cheers up to the Barbara Dicker Brain Science Foundation for supporting this work - here we look to apply expertise/skill acquisition models such as ecological dynamics and OPTIMAL to support sustainable behaviour change for individuals with depression

Well done @kev_tissera on 'The impact of augmented feedback (and technology) on learning and teaching cricket skill: A systematic review with meta-analysis' journals.plos.org/plosone/articl… here applying the ecological dynamics framework to reconceptualise fb in cricket

'Unilateral Force Production Deficits Following Hand Injury In Experienced Climbers: A Reliability And Retrospective Injury Study' been a while on tech detox - but a new paper out looking at unilateral strength in previously injured climbers- 50 day link authors.elsevier.com/a/1gEic3risBCC…

Application deadline in two days!

Im late to the party but a wonderful set of ideas and call to action to address negative aspects of technology use using motor learning/ontological principles: sportsmedicine-open.springeropen.com/articles/10.11…

A priori vs ad hoc education, interesting use of ecological dynamics in mathematics edu & tech design link.springer.com/article/10.100… links to sport in how representational approaches tend to foster fixed task constraints vs non-rep. fostering emergent task constraints during practice

I want to start collecting and organising a library of academic research on the ecological approach and it’s application to sports and skill acquisition. Hit me with your favourite papers, and ideas for organising this into something downloadable/updateable please!

We are looking for a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Biomechanics to join @SPRINT_ACU working with @davidopar @ryan_timmins @niravmaniar91 and I on projects related to the assessment of running kinematics in elite sport. Please share and apply via link: acu.edu.au/about-acu/care…

Alot of interesting overlaps between how motor learning and technology design frameworks explain and try to guide problem solving youtube.com/watch?v=bvvay8…

Very nice article on new approaches to education - abc.net.au/news/2022-01-1…

interesting ideas calling for frameworks on 'learning and teaching' here - frontiersin.org/articles/10.33… - seems to make the applications of any theory development already embedded into the framework this way
