Abstract
This study presents the design education literature in terms of design studio learning by
reviewing teaching styles, learning models and learning process. Additionally, the term
critique is defined as a backbone of the learning process in design studios. The study
focuses on three-critique techniques that are desk critiques, pin-up critiques and group
critiques.
The purpose of this study is to analyze the effects of different critique techniques on the
success of interior architecture students. It also explores correlations between student
attitudes toward each critique technique and its contribution to the design process. A
research was conducted with 3rd year interior architecture students in 2014- 2015 Fall
Semester at Bilkent University. It was found that there was not a statistically significant
relationship between student attitudes towards group, pin-up critiques and their final
performance scores; however, there is a statistically significant relationship between
student attitude toward desk critique and their final performance scores. Furthermore,
the contribution of a critique technique to design process is highly correlated with
student preference for this critique technique.
