Sense-Making It is "a motivated, continuous effort to understand connections (which can be among people, places, and events) in order to anticipate their trajectories and act effectively" (Klein et al., 2006a)

Action-Making “the processes causing intentional (willful) human bodily movements of more or less complex kind” Wikipedia
