A formative critique focuses on purpose, technique, function, and expression. In this course students participate in weekly critique groups to develop rigor in their ability to see, describe, assess, understand, contextualize, and discuss their own work and the work of their peers. Students present work in progress and each student comes prepared to share all the research behind the work, material studies, experimentations and learned outcomes. The progression of critique courses establishes a pathway to the final thesis exhibition.
