Doing over watching

Activity-based describes systems, methods, or approaches organized around specific actions rather than time, resources, or abstract categories.

In business, activity-based costing assigns expenses according to the activities that generate them.

Activity-based learning engages students through hands-on tasks rather than passive instruction: The camp uses an activity-based curriculum.
