Tasks

Use Task Cards to keep track of the things you need to complete. Add due dates to help keep track of tasks, and mark as complete when you've finished.

The Task List (accessed from the home screen) helps you to prioritise your work and add structure to your study sessions.

From here, you can view all your outstanding tasks, sort by name, creation date, or due date, and mark them as complete. If you click on a Task you'll be taken to the Glean Event with focus on your task in your feed.
