The Athletic Skills Model : Optimizing Talent Development Through Movement Education
The Athletic Skills Model offers an alternative to dominant talent development theories in the form of holistic broad-based movement education, focusing on health and wellbeing.It places the emphasis on ‘physical intelligence’ – including attributes such as agility, flexibility and stability – through adaptable and varied training programmes, creating a skilled athlete before introducing sport specialization. The book sets out the scientific underpinnings of the ASM before going on to offer practical guidance on the content of the programme, how to adapt and vary the programme, and how to apply the approach to different age groups and sports.The ASM’s application in the youth development programme at AFC Ajax is explored in depth, before a future of talent development with an emphasis on athletic, rather than sport-specific, expertise is imagined. The Athletic Skills Model introduces an important and timely challenge to conventional wisdom in talent development and is a fascinating read for any upper-level student or researcher interested in youth development, skill acquisition, motor learning or sports coaching, and any coaches wanting to refresh their approach to talent development.

Continuous Provision: The Skills : Enhancing children's development through skills-based learning
This book builds upon Dr Alistair Bryce-Clegg's previous title Continuous Provision in the Early Years.Continuous Provision: The Skills is designed to show practitioners what effective continuous provision should look like and how practitioners can link their provision directly to assessment.It has an emphasis on skill-based learning. Dr Alistair Bryce-Clegg shows the difference between 'pure skills', skills related to specific areas of continuous provision like sand, water and role play, and 'facilitative skills' that children can experience throughout a setting, in many different areas and activities.This book looks at all areas of continuous provision with a view to helping practitioners to identify, assess and teach different 'pure' and 'facilitative' skills. The other essential element for really good continuous provision is a measure of open-ended experience, to allow children to use their own creativity and curiosity to interpret and use what they see around them.This book provides plenty of suggestions to make activities interesting and engaging for children, to encourage them to challenge themselves and learn new skills.

Which course of study is suitable for someone with organizational talent and language skills?
A course of study in business administration or management would be suitable for someone with organizational talent, as it would provide them with the skills and knowledge to effectively manage and coordinate various aspects of an organization. Additionally, a course in linguistics or language studies would be beneficial for someone with language skills, as it would allow them to further develop their language abilities and potentially pursue a career in translation, interpretation, or language teaching. Combining these two areas of study could also open up opportunities in international business, where language skills and organizational talent are highly valued.

What are hard skills and soft skills?
Hard skills are specific, teachable abilities or knowledge that can be easily quantified, such as technical skills like coding, data analysis, or foreign language proficiency. Soft skills, on the other hand, are more subjective and harder to quantify, focusing on interpersonal skills like communication, teamwork, problem-solving, and emotional intelligence. While hard skills are essential for performing specific tasks, soft skills are crucial for effectively working with others and navigating complex social situations in the workplace. Both types of skills are important for success in any job.
-
How do subject-specific skills and social skills develop?
Subject-specific skills develop through practice, repetition, and exposure to the relevant content. For example, a student develops math skills through solving problems and learning new concepts. Social skills, on the other hand, develop through interaction with others, such as communication, cooperation, and empathy. Both types of skills can be nurtured through formal education, as well as through real-world experiences and social interactions.
