A.22.CGUS:5.1 - A missing intermediate capability changes the continuation
In this constructed learning case, a dancer has the strength and static axis control needed by a figure and can recall its sequence. The known limitation is maintaining balance during its required rotation. The figure’s continuation depends on that coordinated performance, not just on adequate strength and memory.
| Alternative | Relevant conditions in this case | Present result |
|---|---|---|
| Perform the complete figure under its intended conditions. | The required balance during rotation cannot yet be sustained. | Unavailable for the intended performance; naming the figure or its steps does not remove the gap. |
| Practise the rotational coordination under a suitable reduced demand. | A domain-appropriate exercise, suitable space and the needed support are available in the stipulated case. | Available as practice of the intermediate performance. It does not establish ability to perform the full figure. |
During the rotation, balance coordination would constitute part of turning; that turn would constitute part of the figure. These are connections through current performance, not three successive tasks. The practice alternative can exercise the first connection without already performing the intended figure.
When the coordination can be sustained, return to the encompassing figure and vary the relevant conditions before drawing a broader capability conclusion. The case condition and its continuation judgement can change without changing the potential alternatives. The subject’s training Method supplies the exercise and assessment; CGUS makes their effect on the available continuation explicit.
