Activity review helps you collaborate directly inside an activity. Instead of sharing feedback separately, you can comment exactly where something needs to change, reply in one place, and resolve comments as work gets done.
What is activity review?
Activity review is a built-in way to review an activity with context.
Feedback stays connected to the part of the activity it refers to. You do not need to explain where the issue is or copy feedback into another tool.
Where can comments be added?
There are two levels of comments in activity review.
Activity-level comments
Use an activity-level comment when your feedback applies to the whole activity.
For example:
the overall flow needs work
the tone is inconsistent from start to finish
the activity feels too long
the learning objective is unclear
This is best for feedback that is broader than one template.
Template-level comments
Use a template-level comment when your feedback relates to a specific part of the activity.
For example:
a paragraph needs rewriting
a title is unclear
a template feels repetitive
an image does not match the message
a question needs to be more engaging
This is best when you want to point to one exact place and keep the feedback tied to it.
Why contextual comments matter
The biggest value of activity review is context.
Every comment stays attached to the part of the activity it refers to. That means it is immediately clear:
what needs to change
where the change is needed
what the discussion is about
👉 This reduces back and forth and makes review easier for everyone in your team!
How comment threads work
Each comment can become its own conversation.
You can reply to a comment in an inline thread, so the discussion stays in one place instead of spreading across messages, documents, or meetings.
This helps you:
keep the original feedback and replies together
ask follow-up questions without losing context
confirm when a change is agreed
avoid repeating the same discussion elsewhere
For example:
A reviewer adds a template-level comment: “This section feels too text-heavy.”
Someone replies: “Should we break this into two templates?”
Another reply adds: “Yes, and one of them could include a short quiz.”
The thread stays attached to that exact template until the change is handled.
That makes the decision easy to follow later.
How resolved comments help you track progress
Once a comment has been handled, it can be marked as resolved.
This helps the team separate:
Which comments are still open and thus needs work, and
Which comments have already been addressed
Resolved comments make review easier to manage, especially when several people are involved or when an activity goes through multiple rounds of feedback
How activity review keeps work moving
Activity review is designed to reduce waiting and make collaboration more practical.
Instead of collecting feedback in different places, you can review and discuss directly inside the work itself. That means you can:
Leave feedback faster
Respond faster
Make changes with more clarity
See what is done and what is still open
This is especially useful when several people are involved in shaping the same activity.
One person can leave broad feedback at the activity level. Another can leave detailed comments directly on templates. Everyone can reply in place, and resolved comments make progress visible.
Why this is useful for teams
When feedback lives outside the activity, it is easy to lose context. Comments can become hard to interpret, discussions can split across tools, and nobody is fully sure what has already been fixed.
Activity review solves that by keeping feedback inside the activity itself.
That gives teams a clearer way to:
review content together
align on changes
avoid duplicated feedback
track open issues
move from draft to final version with less confusion
A simple review workflow
Here is one way to use activity review in practice:
Open the activity you want to review
Leave an activity-level comment for broad feedback
Add template-level comments where specific changes are needed
Reply in threads to discuss details and agree on next steps
Make the updates
Mark comments as resolved once each issue is handled
Review what is still open before finalising the activity
This keeps the process clear from start to finish.
