There was a time that Latin ruled the world. Now it is a forgotten language, used only by doctors and botanists. In its heydays, it was the vehicle of progress. Mastering this language was a precondition for access to scientific knowledge. Nowadays, digitalization is a major challenge for logistic companies. …

“Teaching is both an art and a science” (Harrison & Coll, 2008 p.1). Good teaching excites students and cultivates their curiosity to learn more than they are asked. But what if students’ blank faces tell you that the teaching did not land, what can you do? Using an analogy or metaphor to explain the …

Objective. Clinicians may use implicit or explicit motor learning approaches to facilitatemotor learning of patients with stroke. Implicit motor learning approaches have shown promising results in healthy populations. The purpose of this study was to assess whether an implicit motor learning walking …

Objectives: To investigate immediate changes in walking performance associated with three implicit motor learning strategies and to explore patient experiences of each strategy. Design: Participants were randomly allocated to one of three implicit motor learning strategies. Within-group comparisons …

Background: A significant part of neurological rehabilitation focuses on facilitating the learning of motor skills. Training can adopt either (more) explicit or (more) implicit forms of motor learning. Gait is one of the most practiced motor skills within rehabilitation in people after stroke because …

Background/Aims: Analogy learning, a motor learning strategy that uses biomechanical metaphors to chunk together explicit rules of a to-be-learned motor skill. This proof-of-concept study aims to establish the feasibility and potential benefits of analogy learning in enhancing stride length regulation …

Patients who have suffered a stroke need to (re)learn motor skills in order to live independently. Cognitive deficits can make the understanding of movement instructions during rehabilitation very tough. In the sport domain, analogy learning has been shown to facilitate motor learning without the need …
