	Class activities are placed in the formal curriculum to encourage students to do activities voluntarily and independently. They are as important as learning individual subjects since they are basic to establishing class groups. Class activities have various elements and approaches. The day duty and the class-based activities promote voluntary activities among individual students. Class-based activities done by student groups as a unit along with other group-based activities help to cultivate the ability of a group of students to work and interact together autonomously.
