What type of feedback does technology provide during practice sessions?

The correct answer is augmented feedback, which is a specific type of feedback provided by technology during practice sessions. Augmented feedback refers to information that is given to the learner in addition to their intrinsic feedback—what they feel and sense during the activity. This can include data from swing analyzers, launch monitors, and other technological tools that measure performance metrics such as swing speed, angle of attack, ball speed, and trajectory.

By delivering this additional information, technology helps golfers understand their performance more deeply than they would through self-assessment alone. It allows players to identify areas of improvement and make necessary adjustments during practice, ultimately leading to more effective learning and skill development.

General performance analysis, while it can be part of augmented feedback, is broader and may not provide the specific, actionable insights that technology offers. Emotional support and peer comparison do not directly relate to the feedback provided by technological tools during practice sessions. Instead, they focus on the psychological aspects of learning or competitive analysis, which fall outside the technological feedback domain.
