What is a Crit ?
A ‘crit’ (short for critique) is a process of formal analysis or criticism. It forms an important stage in your project, module or programme, when you have a chance to organise, present and discuss your work with teachers and your group.
It is usually a part of the assessment process, prior to the final marking, giving you an opportunity to reflect on what you have done and gain a range of opinion on how well it is working and ways it could be developed further.
Typically a ‘crit’ will explore these basic questions with regard to your work.
What have I done in response to the module/brief or requirements?
Why have I chosen this approach? Ideas, concepts, issues, context?
What methods have I used and why? Techniques, processes, media?
What’s working, and what could be improved? Strengths and weaknesses?
What can I learn from others’ reactions and suggestions?

You need to present yourself talking about your work. This will be done to a small group of students and staff and last no longer than 5 minutes, it will also have the opportunity for students to feed back advice or comments.
If you are afraid of public speaking you could pre-record you talking about your work and push play in the room.
You will need to collect some form of feedback from others on your work , you could do this by asking if you can record them or by writting their comments down in your evidence file.
