The Theory of Multiple Intelligences and their Impact on Learning Specific Movements in Swimming

Abstract

Understanding, practicing and learning the specific movements in swimming, as part of a whole educational process is achieved by synchronizing the „kinesthetic and space intelligence” as part of the theory of multiple intelligences and „perceptual-motor learning”, something that generates a faster achieving of new specific movements in swimming. The contribution of interdisciplinarity is a human performance generator as it „visibly resizes the ephemeral projections of the athletic performance.” Facilitating the learning of new movements and specific technical mechanisms, involves combining interdisciplinary information as a whole, information that is presented by the one performing the educational process in order to get a proper assimilation in a short time and with positive long-term effects of practical and theoretical concepts assimilated.
