What does activity theory mean

Routine activity theory is sometimes combined with rational choice theory, an action theory that explains human action as the result of rational choice (i.e., acting on the best available option perceived).It considers an entire work/activity system beyond just one actor or user.It accounts for environment, history of the person, culture, role of the artifact, motivations, and complexity of real life activity.What does successful aging mean, anyway?In simple terms, activity theory is all about 'who is doing what, why and how'.The disengagement model suggests that it is natural for the elderly to disengage from society as they realize that they are ever nearer to death.

Activity theory emphasizes that human activity is mediated by tools in a broad sense.Typically, an event needs to be achieved by some operations, particularly where the operation is intended to achieve a number of different things that require coordination, or how the events in a single use case relate.The activity theory of aging proposes that older adults are happiest when they stay active and maintain social interactions.
