Things I noticed from the crit: people ask questions about what they thought through.For instance one of the girls commented that our magazine should have considered more about the overall look and how individual articles go together as one whole magazine. The girl who asked this question has really improved the overall unity of their magazine since the interim crit.
My group asked ourselves a lot of questions about scale and relevance of material, and they became the things that I asked to others during the crit.
i.e. More you think and question your own work, easier it becomes to ask questions about works of others.
I think asking right questions is a talent and a skill. A very valuable one. I also think asking right question is more difficult than it may sound. I certainly am not too good at it myself. It is true that asking question is a great way to learn but I often don't even know what I want to know.
When a 'right question' is asked, it certainly provides new perspectives to both questionnaire and the answerer.
良い質問が出来るということは、重要なスキルだと思う。
ただ、良い質問をするというのは意外と難しい。自分も質問するのは得意じゃない。「何が知りたいのか」「何がわからないのか」さえも分からないことが多い。
ただ、自分のやっていることを多角的に考える癖（「なんでこの素材なのか」「どういう目的なのか」みたいなのことを自問自答）があれば、他人に質問するのも少しは楽になる気がする。
そういう風にして、考える訓練をしていくしかないのかな。
