# ☑️ Tasklist Block

The Tasklist Block is perfect for verifying that the learner has completed certain steps of a project, or tasks that take place outside of the course Path. For example...

- Check off steps required for a project before submitting the final file.
- Check off exercises done offline.
- Check off required reading.
- Check off hours of practice or volunteering.

## How to add a tasklist

1. Create a new step on your course Path and open the step.
2. Select **"Task"** then **"Tasklist."** You've added a Block to your step!
3. Replace the template tasklist title and description with your own. Add all required items to your tasklist.
4. Optionally add more Blocks. When finished, hit **Publish**.

👉Note: All items in a Tasklist Block series are required. To create a checklist with items that are optional, use a [Multiple Response Question Block](./multiple-response-question-block.help.md) instead and don't select any "correct" answers.
