Observational learning, a cornerstone of behavioral theories, posits that individuals acquire new skills by observing others. This principle is especially pertinent in sport pedagogy, where modeling serves as a crucial instructional tool, enabling educators and coaches to demonstrate techniques effectively. Recent advancements in multimedia technologies, such as 360-degree videos, virtual reality, and augmented reality, have significantly enhanced the potential of observational learning. However, the high costs associated with these advanced technologies limit their widespread accessibility. In contrast, traditional digital video remains a highly effective and accessible method for motor skill modeling. Digital videos offer precise, repeatable demonstrations, thereby aiding learners, including those with special needs, in mastering skills through controlled and repeated observation. This commentary underscores the significance of video modeling in sport pedagogy, advocating for the adoption of best practices to maximize its educational potential.
