CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -VISUAL MOTOR integration is a complex skill set which encompasses many underlying skills such as visual perception, motor control, and eye-hand coordination. Simply stated, it refers to the ability to translate a visual image, or a visual plan, into an accurate motor action.

Detailed explanation-2: -Motor coordination is the orchestrated movement of multiple body parts as required to accomplish intended actions, like walking. This coordination is achieved by adjusting kinematic and kinetic parameters associated with each body part involved in the intended movement.

Detailed explanation-3: -Coordinated movement requires a functioning cerebellum, spinal cord and peripharal nervous system.

Detailed explanation-4: -Coordination occurs at many levels of the motor control hierarchy: between individual muscles, between joints and between limbs. Movements are made to achieve goals and effectors are coordinated to control task-relevant states of the body and environment (the physical plant).
