Post date: Tuesday, May 20, 2025 - 14:28

If you're using tasks on this website for the first time, most tasks are available in Word and PDF versions, with some available in fillable PDF and/or digitized interactive versions.  Many tasks now also have a Google Form option that allows you to copy the task and send it to your learner.  For more information on how to use the tasks, specifically Google Forms, please watch one or more of the short videos linked below.

  1. Introducing Digitized Activities on The Task-Based Activities Portal
  2. Creating a Google Drive Library for your TBA Google Forms
  3. Copying TBA Google Forms Correctly
  4. Sending Google Forms to Learners
  5. Managing Learner Responses in TBA Google Forms

QUILL is continuing to update tasks (2024-2026) and create more fillable and digitized versions of these tasks.  Changes are also planned which will make the TBA website more user friendly. Updates on this project will be posted here throughout the year.

Browse the activities by GOAL PATH and/or LEVEL or use the search option to find the most appropriate resources for your students.
