[Administering an examination](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-edwarbudiman/lectures/week-11/): Design a short instrument from the course's ladder, resources and notice decisions, then administer it to a real person and interpret what the record does and does not establish. - [Defending the inference](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-edwarbudiman/lectures/week-12/): Watch a fictional examinee pass every rung of the course's own instrument cleanly, then find out why that clean pass still cannot settle what it was built to settle. - [People](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-edwarbudiman/people/): Who teaches the course, and how to reach them. - [Idris Fenn](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-edwarbudiman/people/idris-fenn/): A tutor working across the course's first reviews and the practical work that follows them. -

[What your explanation leaves out](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-edwarbudiman/sessions/02-first-review/): Run the rate, explain and re-rate protocol on a zip fastener, annotate your own explanation against a technical description, and defend one claim from what you actually produced. - [What the closed source reveals](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-edwarbudiman/sessions/03-reconstruction/): Study a supplied explanation of a pin tumbler lock, close it, rebuild the mechanism from memory, then restore it and annotate the difference by type of loss before defending one judgement from what you produced. - [Three conditions, one judgement](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-edwarbudiman/sessions/04-conditions/): Judge the same fictional person's three accounts of one lock, choose the condition you trust, write down the rule you used, and examine what your own judging depended on. - [Classify, disagree, produce the missing rung](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-edwarbudiman/sessions/05-the-ladder/): Apply the course's seven-rung ladder to performances from earlier weeks and your own work, then produce the one kind of evidence no prior week has supplied. -

[Write it down before you know](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-edwarbudiman/sessions/09-prior-commitment/): Record a prediction and confidence level before checking a reference, then compare it honestly against your revised answer, to see what a prior state can and cannot establish. -
