TRY THIS for Design Teachers

Here are some things you can try as a design teacher to make for an interesting critique.

5 THINGS DESIGN TEACHERS CAN TRY:

1- Make an audio recording of a critique that you lead, then analyze the recording to learn about the ways you ask questions.

2- When leading similar critiques, change one thing to see how that affects the outcome of the class.  Write about your findings in an article.

3- Display the designs according to different themes, including themes of subject matter, similarity of media, or some other organizing principle, such as chronologically.

4- Critique the design media themselves.  Ask the class, "What are the advantages/disadvantages?  Are there limitations?  Are there wrong ways to use any particular medium?"

5- Host a pretend radio show, in which a student guest must describe and critique designs that the rest of the class cannot see.  Select "callers" to ask questions to the guest of your radio show.
