The critique is an integral part of any design education, however, it’s also anxiety inducing, highly stressful, and oftentimes detrimental to a designer’s ability to successfully learn. As design educators, art directors, and design managers, how might we redesign the critique process to provide useful peer and expert feedback, while lessening student’s anxiety? In 2019, Jacob DeGeal and Lauren Smedley led a series of workshops and exercises at the University of Texas at Austin that prototyped new methods and systems that can reshape this process. Through segmenting the critique into zones of activity for peer practice, relaxation, and presentation, participants reported lowered levels of stress, and increased focus and confidence. Our aim was to develop and promote long-term inclusive and equitable teaching practices in design education.
