DARTS are directed activities related to text – a range of tasks that learners can be set to actively engage with texts, beyond being asked to read them
"DARTS take various forms, such as providing a technical diagram with incomplete labels, and an associated text that could be interrogated to complete the labelling of the diagram. DARTS were intended to provide more 'active' learning tasks that could be used to review topics or support new learning as an alternative to the kind of basic note-making which can become little more than copying information from the teacher's notes or a book." (Taber, 2018, 28)
