Thanks Alyssea!

Why is "which" a mistake?  I don't understand when to use "which" or "that".

Hi goodox,

Have a look here - this is where you can find relative clauses explained, and this should help you to understand when to use "which" and when to use "that"  .

Why is "scope" a mistake?

Hello again,

Scope isn't a word you'd use in this context. If you wanted to use the English word for "Aufgabenstellung" it'd be "assignment" (of tasks). Scope would be "Aufgabenbereich".

Thanks for the explanation!
