Demonstrate, Defend and Reflect on a Capstone

The final Grade 12 course prepares learners to present their capstone professionally: a scripted, rehearsed demonstration built around the success criteria with contingencies and test data; an honest evaluation that reports every criterion with evidence (including those not met); a defence that answers hard questions with claim, evidence, reasoning and trade-offs; and a specific, analytical reflection with complete attribution of sources and AI assistance.

  • 4 lessons
  • About 105 minutes
  • Check what you learned: 8 questions
  • Ways to answer: choose an answer, trace code, highlight a text, match pairs, type a number and put in order
