Abstract
The eCRONY project hypothesises the development and ongoing experimentation of a digital educational tool aimed at enhancing motor sciences teaching. Traditionally, motor skills education relies on demonstration and imitation, often limited to describing visible movements. This approach does not delve into biomechanical causes or proprioceptive sensations as primary learning tools, aspects typically left to practical internships. However, the growing adoption of digital technologies and distance learning highlights the need for an approach that integrates these elements to better support online students with limited guided practice.eCRONY, structured in four progressive levels (proprioceptive exploration, biomechanical analysis, comparison of causes and effects, and simulation in the absence of terrestrial forces), aims to serve as a valuable educational supplement. The educational pathway promotes a deep understanding of movements, exploring causal forces and enhancing both sensory learning and autonomous feedback abilities. The proposed experimentation aims to assess the effectiveness of this innovative approach compared to traditional methods, hypothesising improvements in proprioceptive awareness, biomechanical understanding, and critical self-assessment abilities among students. If confirmed, the expected outcomes could position eCRONY as a valuable tool for a more scientific and accessible approach to motor skills teaching.
