Send us a textDan Cottrell catches up with one of the leading researchers on using games in training, Shane Pill. Shane is Associate Professor in Physical Education and Sport at Flinders University, Australia, a practising coach, coach developer and author of many papers around sports coaching. A list of some of his most recent work is below this post.The discussion in the podcast explores the following:Do we need to know the difference between the different approaches to using games in training, for example, between games-based approaches, constraints-led approaches, games-sense and gamification?How "games" differ for novices and experts.When does coaching happen within a game.When you need to breakout of the game and for what reasons.How Shane has developed his approach to coaching through games in his experiences working in schools.Why we need to plan questions for games and not get distracted by the game in training.The impact of different groups of "learners" on the style of your coaching (and this isn't about learning styles).Applying Mossten's teaching styles in a game-based training session.How not all your sessions should be about learning.How games can be used for recall and rehearsal as well as learning.Follow Shane on Twitter@pilly66And on LinkedINLinks mentioned in the podcast:Eric WorthingtonBlackwell GolfSome examples of Shane's most recent research papers/book contributions.Pill, S.
