What is the difference between whole and part practice?

Answer 1

The difference is:

A whole practice method is learning the entire skill with out breaking down the parts in it, e.g juggling a 3 ball cascade, instead of breaking it down to 1 ball, then 2 balls, hen 3 balls when learning, you just go straight to 3 balls and practice with the 3 balls.

While the part method is when you break down the skill your learning into its separate stages e.g juggling with 3 balls, you would break it down to 1 ball, once you get the hang of that, you would move onto 2 balls, get the hang of that, you would move onto 3 balls and so on.
