Deliberate practice is focused, at the edge, with feedback

Deliberate practice is composed of three elements:

1.   Practice one or two specific skills
2.   Practice skills at the edge of ability
3.   Practice with immediate feedback and coaching

… when these elements are present, skill acquisition accelerates. And when they are absent (which they are in most “learning” settings), very little growth occurs.^[1]
