Buzz lets you create various activity types using the same tool.

Add an activity

Buzz provides activity types to facilitate quick creation of a variety of activities that support personalized and project-based learning models.

You can create Wikis and Discussion threads to promote collaborative knowledge creation and idea exchange, Journals and Blogs for personal reflection, as well as more traditional assignments and assessments.

To add activities, open the Editor from the Main Menu, select the folder you want to add the activity to, and click the Add activity button.

This opens the Add activity screen, where you can:

  1. Use the Search bar to find any Activity type, template, or tool that is available to you and to browse your Library.
  2. Star activities that you use frequently, so you can quickly find them again using the Starred filter.
  3. Select Built-in to filter for activity types that are native to Buzz.
  4. Select BusyBee to filter for ai-powered activities that are available as a Buzz add-on.
    • If BusyBee is not enabled in your domain, you can still browse and learn more about these activities.
  5. Filter to show Activity Templates or External tools (LTI 1.3) that are available. These filters appear only if they have been added to your domain.
  6. Click Learn more where available to find out more about the activity.
  7. Click Add to add the activity to your course.
