The psychomotor domain focuses on motor skills and physical coordination, requiring students to demonstrate proficiency in physical tasks. It has been revised by various theorists, including Dave, Harrow, and Simpson, who outlined different levels of motor skill competence from imitation to naturalization. The significance of this domain includes enhancing practical skills, promoting holistic learning, and preparing individuals for career readiness.

PSYCHOMOTOR DOMAIN
Presented by: Caress Festejo
WHAT IS THE PSYCHOMOTOR DOMAIN?
focuses on motor skills and actions that require physical coordination.

In this domain, students are expected to demonstrate their proficiency


in performing physical tasks or activities.

The psychomotor domain has been revised over the years by Dave
(1970), Harrow (1972), and Simpson (1972).

Dave’s Psychomotor Domain is the

simplest domain and easiest to apply.

Dave’s five levels of motor skills represent

different degrees of competence in

performing a skill. It captures the levels of

competence in the stages of learning from

initial exposure to final mastery

(Psychomotor Domain - the Peak

Performance Center, n.d.)


IMITATION
involves the ability to learn and pattern your behavior after someone else. The learner
observes a skill and attempts to repeat it, or sees a finished product and attempts to
replicate it while attending to an exemplar. At this level, the performance may be of
low quality.
KEY VERBS: Attempt, Copy, Imitate, Mimic, Follow, Repeat, Duplicate, Replicate,
Reproduce.

The learner will be able to; Copy a work of art.


EXAMPLE LEARNING OBJECTIVE: Perform a skill while observing a demonstrator.
MANIPULATION
involves the ability to perform certain tasks by memory or following instructions.
The learner performs the skill or produces the product in a recognizable fashion by
following general instructions rather than observation.

KEY VERBS: Act, Build, Execute, Perform, Complete,


Accomplish, Follow, Play, Produce.

The learner will be able to; Perform a skill on one’s own after
EXAMPLE LEARNING OBJECTIVE:
taking lessons or reading about it. Follow instructions to build
a model.
PRECISION
involves the ability to perform certain tasks with some level of expertise and without help
or intervention from others. The learner independently performs the skill or produces the
product, with accuracy, proportion, and exactness; at an expert level. At this level, the
performance becomes more exact and refined.

KEY VERBS: Achieve automatically, Excel expertly, Perform masterfully,


Demonstrate skillfully, Calibrate perfectly.

The learner will be able to; Perform a skill or


EXAMPLE LEARNING OBJECTIVE: task without assistance.
ARTICULATION
involves the ability to adapt and integrate multiple actions to develop methods to meet
varying and novel requirements. The learner modifies the skill or the product to fit new
situations; combines more than one skills in sequence with harmony and consistency.

KEY VERBS: Adapt, Construct, Combine, Create, Customize, Modify,


Formulate, Alter, Originate.

The learner will be able to; Combine a series of skills to


EXAMPLE LEARNING OBJECTIVE:
produce a video that involves music, drama, color, sound,
etc. Combine a series of skills or activities to meet a novel
requirement.
NATURALIZATION
is the ability to perform actions in an automatic, intuitive or unconscious way. The
learner accomplishes one or more skills with ease and makes the skill automatic with
limited physical or mental exertion. At this level, the performance has become second-
nature or natural, without needing to think much about it.

KEY VERBS: Create, Design, Develop, Invent, Manage naturally or


perfectly.

EXAMPLE LEARNING OBJECTIVE: The learner will be able to; Maneuver a car into a tight
parallel parking spot. Operate a computer quickly and
accurately. Display competence while playing the piano.
