VivaEdu offers two distinct modes for oral assessment. Choose based on your needs.
Getting Started
When you launch VivaEdu from your LMS, you'll see a chooser asking which mode you need.
Two Modes for Different Needs
Q&A Viva Assignment
Cohort-wide understanding. Create a structured viva for the entire class, optionally linked to an LMS assignment. Use the 7-step wizard to configure questions, rubrics, and settings.
• Same questions for all students
• Due date based availability
• Question pool randomization
• Ideal for formative assessment

Viva Verification
Targeted post-grading checks. Configure a unique, tailored viva for a specific student to verify authorship or address academic integrity concerns.
• Questions tailored to their submission
• AI generates from their specific work
• Student receives email notification
• Single-page setup, no wizard
