Psychomotor learning is demonstrated by physical skills such as movement, coordination, manipulation, dexterity, grace, strength, speed—actions which demonstrate the fine or gross motor skills, such as use of precision instruments or tools, and walking.
Behavioral examples include driving a car, throwing a ball, and playing a musical instrument.
[2] The cognitive stage is marked by awkward slow and choppy movements that the learner tries to control.
In the associative stage, the learner spends less time thinking about every detail, however, the movements are still not a permanent part of the brain.
In the autonomic stage, the learner can refine the skill through practice, but no longer needs to think about the movement.
