The Dreyfus model of skill acquisition
The Dreyfus model of skills acquisition is
based on skill development through instruction and experience. In this
model, the student works through five developmental stages:
- novice
- competence
- proficiency
- expertise
- mastery
A student with greater skill depends less on theory and principles, and more on their experience. They also look differently at the environment in which they are working. The diagram below is adapted from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dreyfus_model_of_skill_acquisition
