While, As and During

Use 'while' and 'as' to express actions that happen at the same time.
                                 while/as + verb
          He was cleaning the garage while/as I was cooking lunch.

Use 'during' to express the same idea, but with a noun. 
                                   during + noun
          He did his homework during class.
