WEAKNESSES

Limitations

• The humans are always more important than any other part of the system
• Use of technology changes as user becomes more proficient, so the activity system is constantly changing
• Individual subjects and collective subjects

• help students organize activity systems around specific talents and abilities
• mediate potential conflicts and give strategies to relieve tensions and stress
• researchers track changes, understandings and objectives, describe current realities and predict changes
