Instructor Observation

This document reflects my instructor observation for the USC Design II course. Through this observation, I analyzed the interactions between students and the instructor, as well as the structure and engagement level of the studio-based learning environment.

The session I observed focused on reviewing student projects for MoMA’s exhibition, where students presented their design progress, received constructive feedback, and engaged in collaborative discussions. The instructor facilitated the session by guiding students through critical design problem-solving, encouraging peer feedback, and ensuring that each student actively participated.

Overall, this observation provided valuable insights into how design education fosters critical thinking, creative exploration, and professional preparation within a studio setting.
