Overview
Activity Tasks are designed to help learners stay on track with their learning journey. Unlike assessments, Activity Tasks do not create formal assessments. Instead, they act as reminders for learners to complete specific activities such as revision, research, or skills development. Learners can then reflect on these activities by completing a Learning Journal entry.
