To all
Jacques Giard wrote that:
"PS: I ave dropped the word 'crit' from my lexicon. I now use the words
progress review."
The only "crit model" that any student can respond to, is an
environment / atmospere that "calls forth" anything that is "already
there" - i. e. a crit model that can focus on, illuminate, something in
the student's environment (that is designed by the student, the teacher,
the local landscap, the business opportunities, etc.).
The "crit model" is focused on the work and not on the person - what
could be more "logical"?"
The crit model that mimics the real world is following a systems /
cybernetics example, AND THEREFORE, cannot be as confrontational as the
model that makes the student stagger back in confusion, leaving no
traces to follow; i.e., the lecturer / teacher had no idea that the
territory so fondly described in the brief did not in any way
correspond to the map supplied in the brief ...
