A few years ago I considered launching an online design school startup a few years ago. Most of the teachers I discussed it with felt that design is best learned in studio classes with group critiques and direct interaction with faculty. Most good design teachers said that they wouldn’t teach design online for those reasons. I decided I agreed with them and killed the project.
