Sažetak
The general objective of the research was to determine the speed of learning and the quality of performing several judo throwing techniques in the one-semester judo course of the Bachelor PE teacher education curriculum at the Faculty of Kinesiology, University of Zagreb. A sample of 122 male sophomores participated in the study. Their task was to learn and perform 14 typical judo-throwing techniques, which are also the obligatory component of the PE curriculum in Croatian grammar schools. The students learnt and practised two throws in one 90 minute class. The quality of the motor skill expertise (knowledge) was evaluated twice for each particular throw. The statistically significant differences between the two grades given for the throw demonstrations occured in 6 techniques: two hand, two hip, one self- sacrificing and one leg throwing technique (tai-otoshi, te-guruma, tsurigoshi, harai- goshi, soto-makikomi and osoto-gari), whereas no significant differences were obtained between the grades for the remaining eight throws. On the basis of the determined varying speeds of acquisition (motor learning and mastering) of the particular judo throwing techniques that pertain to various groups of throws, the authors suggest certain modification in both judo instruction programs.
