There are several different methods of learning motor skills, like traditional (linear) and differential (nonlinear) learning training. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of Differential Learning (DL) and Contextual Interference (CI) on the Retention and Transfer of Badminton backhand short serve. A total of 28 female students aged 18 to 22 years old were randomly divided into two groups of 14 Differential Learning and Contextual Interference. Prior to the implementation of the protocol, all participants of the pre-test were taken. Then, each group of research performed for 8 sessions according to the type of training. One day after the completion of the practice protocol, all participants were taken the tests of Retention and Transfer. For data analysis, a t-test was used in SPSS-23 software with a significant level of 0.05. The analysis indicated that there was a significant difference between the groups DL and CI in test Retention and Transfer (p= 0.00). In fact, the results of the research show the effectiveness of the DL approach on the Retention and Transfer of Badminton backhand short serve. Based on the results of the research, the conclusion is that the DL approach is useful for learning skills, and can discover adaptive solutions by creating oscillations in the individual and helped to improve and learning skills.
