[DG: Teaching & Learning] rethinking/simplifying learning activities

[Bruce D'Arcus]

I've been working out some ideas on learning activity design in OAE,
and wonder what people here think?

So here's a textual description on Google+:

And here's the sort of UI I am imagining for inspiration (from a new
task management/GTD app):

E.g. from the perspective of the learner (which should be our
priority), their activity in OAE would be organized around a unified,
extensible, list of tasks. Throw out entirely "assignments, "quizzes"
and so forth.
