ELI5: PoW vs PoS

I am still struggling to figure out what exact work a validator is doing? In the PoW context, a miner tries to solve a mathematical puzzle asap and broadcasts the solution to the network. In ETH's context, what does a PoS validator (and its attesters) exactly do or work on to create the next block?

Thanks!
