The importance of this type of technology is that it challenges students how to really think about what they want to say; that sounds simple, but the results are surprising.

"The depth of your observations from last night is still resonating with me. I'm trying to think of another interview I've given where the questioner understood the material so well that he/she so regularly (and fluidly) went into new intellectual territory.
