This tutorial shows the complete flow after finishing your viva: submission, completion screen, reviewing your answers, and leaving clarification comments.

1. Uploading Your Responses

After answering your final question, the system uploads your recordings. Most uploads happen in the background while you answer subsequent questions, so this phase is usually quick.

Your transcript (auto-generated from your audio response)
Note: transcription can take a few minutes to appear after you finish. If you submitted just now, refresh shortly.
For data collection, I used a mixed-methods approach combining quantitative surveys with qualitative interviews. The survey was distributed to 150 participants across three cohorts, achieving a 78% response rate. I then conducted semi-structured interviews with 20 participants selected through purposive sampling to explore emergent themes in greater depth. For analysis, I used SPSS for the quantitative data, running descriptive statistics and regression analyses. The qualitative data was coded using thematic analysis following Braun and Clarke's six-phase framework. I maintained an audit trail throughout to ensure transparency and rigour.
