Susan Schwager and Cathy Labate have provided a well developed description of the importance of critical thinking in Physical Education. They point to the fact that "the performance of motor skills can be described as a series of information-processing tasks," and "By purposefully focusing students' attention on the decisions necessary for successful skill performance, teachers may be able to enhance students' skill learning."
