Big Update: New Sepolia Faucet Located Here. \Kovan, Ropsten, and Rinkeby have been deprecated. Goerli Still works but we highly recommend Sepolia as its proof of stake based.
You'll need to verify via Twitter to get ETH & LINK. You can find Backup Faucets here.
Additionally, lesson 7 uses Chainlink VRF v1 instead of v2, you can find the docs for Chainlink VRFv1 here.
