Location sensors status: August 25, 2016 |
Initially, students will be
learning 18 movements, batons, Lao Jia and |
single saber. There's a fair amount of other material
learned, but only |
the canonical sets are currently
expected to be graded on a daily basis. |
As students progress more sets will
be added to the daily routine. |
Since it takes about as long to grade a set as it does to
perform it, there |
are formidable challenges. We
attempted to analyze existing video of a |
grandmaster but soon realized it would be necessary to
re-record a |
grandmaster with location sensors on. As there are sixteen
sets this is |
a task we would prefer to do just
once.
One idea we tried (and have not |
completely abandoned) is to teach
using color-coded accessories so |
the teacher
can say 'move red' instead of 'move right foot' - early
results |
indicate a significant number of
students have problems with left and |
right. These sports sleeves from
Suddora are supposed to wick away |
perspiration and keep arms cool.
Can lots of NBA players be wrong? |
