🍂 Critique – Fan Page
I’m dividing the class into 2 groups. You’re only required to stay in the Zoom during your group’s presentations, but you’re welcome to stay for both if you’d like. Please link your project below where it says “url” underneath your name. 

You’ll notice that each person has been assigned a first responder (1R), and notetaker (N). The first responder (1R) will kick off our discussion as soon as the presenter has finished sharing their work. The notetaker will listen carefully and document the highlights of the critique on our document.

Please also submit your assignment on Canvas.

When critiquing, these are the questions we should consider: 

  1. Is this a topic or a story? What perspective did the designer use to develop interest and meaning to this piece?
  1. What parts of the project were most effective?
  1. How does the design support the content?
  1. Would you know what this project is about by looking at it? Why or why not?
  1. What parts were weak — what would have helped? 
  1. Any questions left unanswered?
  1. How might the designer continue to evolve this piece?

⏰ We’ll have a timer set for ~10 minutes per presentation.

Group 1: 1:50 PM EDT

Catherine, Lindsay, Sylvia, Ashley, Janice, Becky

Group 2: 3:00 PM EDT

Egret, Jihu, Tarah, Sarah, Kristine, Amy
