Four-dimensional instruction
Special for our MSF couches @CycleCam303 and @csmith12:
Copied from http://www.motorcyclistonline.com/fe...on_code_break/ "In practical terms, time and attention are our greatest assets. We've all had our attention riveted on one aspect of cornering at the expense of all the rest. An unanticipated slide can instantly redirect all your attention to the wheel that slipped, leaving the other aspects of cornering unsupervised. Riveted attention also compresses your sense of time, often making you feel rushed. Slowing down time—not speeding it up—is crucial because most corners are completed in just three to five seconds, so there's not much time to act. Just like money, our attention is a limited resource that requires careful management. Riveted attention has an effect similar to target fixation, distorting and compressing time and space, and confounding the cornering process. A good coach is able to help the rider improve without overwhelming him. The key to this is helping that rider focus on one aspect of the task at hand without completely releasing his mental grasp of the others. The trick to this is to break the task down into its component parts and work on each of these separately, one at a time. Just like learning to juggle, you begin with one ball, then add another and another in sequence." - Keith Code

You can only focus and do one thing really well. That applies to all forms of coaching. With motorcycling no matter what the skill level is, there is one thing that if changed will make a bigger difference than anything else.
With teaching newbies it's more of look for who needs he'll the most and figure out what their biggest danger is and address that. |

Could've sworn I'd find this reposted in this thread:

My 4D
Evaluate (current ability of student) Set up student success (define student goal and how to get there) Review ongoing progress (work out any issues that crop up or slow progress) Reach success (review/reinforce what went right and celebrate) Each person/rider/student requires a coach to think on their feet and to adjust materials to what is most benefiting to the student. The MSF poses a unique challenge, as we MUST stick to the curriculum and doesn't allow us much flexibility. EDIT: @CZroe... well played!
