# Exercise Flow

> What to expect: Context → Debate → Debrief.

Every exercise takes 2–3 minutes and follows the same rhythm. You can answer by voice or text.

## 1) Context

Short, clear setup so you can engage confidently. You might see:

* A situation: what’s happening and why it matters
* Your lens: role, audience, or constraints
* Optional visual: chart, quote, or simple diagram

Goal: Give you enough to think out loud without Googling.

## 2) Debate

1–3 questions that prompt your reasoning — not trivia. Common patterns:

* Trade‑offs: “What do we gain vs. what do we risk?”
* Assumptions: “What bet are we making about behavior?”
* Options: “What else could we do?”
* Hypotheses: “What could explain this?”
* Data: “What would you measure and why?”

There’s rarely a single right answer. What matters is clarity, structure, and judgment.

## 3) Debrief

Actionable feedback that helps you improve on the next rep:

* What you covered well vs. what to try next time
* How your answer maps to key skills
* A concise “Socratify take” showing expert reasoning

You earn XP and add evidence toward skill proficiency.

## Example (abbreviated)

Context: “You’re a PM at a consumer app. The team wants to add a paywall to the most‑used feature.”

Debate:

* What’s the core trade‑off? (revenue vs. engagement; churn risk; equity considerations)
* What metrics would you watch in the first two weeks?
* What’s the minimum viable experiment?

Debrief: Highlights if you identified the right trade‑offs, connected metrics to decisions, and proposed a realistic experiment.
