Critique is the most common aspect of studio design education. This structure and practice is how design skills are developed around the world within a design studio. This chapter examines the design critique, compares its structure and results to established educational theory, and maps the process for use in a distributed or distance environment. It begins with an examination of design and the design studio, and then focuses on the central aspect of design professions: the critique. While there are a wide range of terms used in connection with critique, various forms will be examined here to provide a diversified examination of this pedagogical methodology. Concluding with an examination of the use of critique in distance and online education, some alternatives for technology and strategy are presented. This may provide a model for distributed cognition and learning, both in formal class settings and elsewhere.
