On https://github.com/moddevices/cc-arduino-lib the things that are connected to the shield are called actuators. IMHO this is not the right term and could cause some confusion. So I would suggest to call them sensors, because these are thingies that interfaces between the shield and the environment. The actuator in this case is the MOD DUO itsself I guess because it acts upon the signals it gets from the shield.
