Day 10Level 1 — Core Mental Models

Review 1: Your First Design Records — AI Critique & Self-Assessment

Learn: 30 minMap: 20 minDesign: 60 min

Core Concepts (5)

  • 1.Run your Days 1-9 Design Records through AI critique
  • 2.Compare self-assessment vs AI scores — calibration is the skill
  • 3.Identify your systematic blind spots (missing NFRs, weak trade-offs, etc.)
  • 4.Track scores over time: the longitudinal view is the real signal
  • 5.Dispute findings you disagree with — feeds rubric improvement

Map to Your Experience

Run your Day 9 payment system through the AI critique. Note: which findings surprised you? Which did you expect? Where did you score yourself higher/lower than the AI?
