Abstract
Learning of sport skills is a complex process which is influenced by the individual differences. The purpose of the current research was to compare the Linear pedagogy and the Nonlinear pedagogy on the performance and learning of table tennis forehand stroke. This was a semi-experimental study that was carried out on 22 girls (9 - 11year). Random two groups after pre-test, participated in eight sessions to learn. Then, the immediate retention test was conducted, and after four weeks they took the delayed retention and transfer tests. Although, both groups had progress in accuracy scores also the Nonlinear group in all stages of post-intervention scored better marks, statistically, there was no significant difference between two groups (p>0.05). The results suggested that there are extra ways for learning, by searching and finding a proper movement solution can learn more easily, and recommends instructors to use new methods of learning.
