Voice Practice Sessions let you practice speaking, debate, and professional conversations with an AI partner. Sessions are recorded, transcribed, and automatically graded based on your professor's rubric.

Starting a Session

1. Go to your course and click Voice Agents.
2. Select the agent (e.g., "Software Engineering Interview Practice").
3. Read the session description and scenario brief.
4. Click Start Session. Allow microphone access when your browser prompts you.
5. The AI introduces the scenario and begins the session.

During the Session

• Speak naturally — your speech is transcribed in real time
• The AI responds as your interviewer, debate opponent, or practice partner
• A timer shows session progress if a time limit has been set

Ending and Reviewing

Click End Session when you are done. ScholarStack generates a full transcript and an AI verdict covering your performance on each rubric criterion. Review your score and detailed feedback to improve before your next session.

Best Practices

• Use headphones with a microphone for best audio quality
• Find a quiet location to minimize background noise
• Read the scenario brief before starting — preparation makes a real difference

When to Use Voice Practice

Voice practice is ideal for: preparing for oral exams, improving language pronunciation, practicing interview skills, debating arguments out loud, or any scenario where you need to practice speaking rather than writing. It is fundamentally different from text chat — the back-and-forth happens in real time, just like a conversation with a person.
