Some TAC teams had the idea to publish small challenges/tasks for their members, for
example "memorize a song" or "present your favourite book".

I think that there is no reason to limit this kind of thing to a single TAC team,
unless the task is language-specific. Even people who aren't doing a TAC at all could
use an occasional idea of what to do. So how'bout publishing weekly tasks here and
everyone can do them?

The rules:
1. Every week there is only one task, but there can be different versions for
beginner/intermediate/advanced students.
2. Anyone may post a task in this thread.
3. Keep the chatter to a minimum in this thread, so that tasks can easily be spotted
and the thread doesn't grow huge.
4. Anyone may complete a task (preferably the one for the current week). To indicate
that he has done so without growing the thread, just upvote the post in which the task
is described. Descriptions of how the task went should generally NOT be posted here but
in one's own log, the team log or a relevant HTLAL subforum. In the case of foreign-
language texts they can also be posted on lang-8.

Task for Week -1

Find at least one new website related to your target language which you didn't know
before. The best findings should be cross-posted to the Links forum.

The idea is to find a website that will help you in your language-learning. Depending on
your level, this could be a course website, one with vocabulary, phrases, or it could be
a website for native speakers that holds interesting content for you.

I don't quite understand the challenge? Do you mean learniing website or just a website
with cool stuff written in your target language(s)?

(If you edit your answer into your last post, I could just delete this message
afterwards.)

I've tried to start something like that. I don't mind if my thread is used for the questions etc. I'll be archiving the tasks there too because it's supposed to last infinitely, not just one week:)

@stifa i think it can be both. just share whatever you find interesting. obviously if you're a beginner in your first foreign language it might be hard to find a native resource. but resources for advanced learners are welcome too.
