Defense practice: record, respond, self-assess

AI Tools & Strategy · Learning Design

You hit record, and randomized questions are spoken to you one at a time, the way a real defense or interview feels. Answer each on camera, then watch your recording and score yourself against the rubric. Your video never leaves this device.

How it works. Pick a set below. Each attempt draws a different random subset of questions, so you cannot pre-script. A question is read aloud and shown on screen with a countdown; when the timer ends, the next one comes. When you finish, review your recording, self-assess against the rubric, and submit your written self-assessment (not the video) to your instructor.
