素描是设计过程中不可或缺的一部分，因为它允许在行动中进行反思，允许模棱两可和抽象，鼓励意想不到的东西，将心理意象具体化，并通过类比推理和重新解释激发创造力。概念的清晰表达不仅促进了与同行和客户的讨论，更重要的是，在反思实践中与自己进行了讨论。在工程实践的背景下，草图在产品设计和开发过程的所有阶段都具有多种社会和认知功能。从根本上说，素描是所有设计师的第一语言，很明显，设计过程可能会受到一个人利用绘画进行认知探索的能力的限制。因此，将绘图技能的发展整合到工程教育中是至关重要的。本文讨论了旨在培养产品设计工程专业学生绘画文化的课程倡议。SketchFest是一个素描和构思项目，它增强了现有的绘图技能，引入了新的技术，并促进了学生对素描在产品设计和开发中的价值的认识。
Sketching is integral to the design process, as it allows reflection in action, enables ambiguity and abstraction, encourages the unexpected, externalises mental imagery, and provokes creativity though analogical reasoning and reinterpretation. The articulation of the concept facilitates a discussion not only with peers and clients, but more importantly with oneself in a reflective practicum. In the context of engineering practice, sketching serves multiple social and cognitive functions throughout all stages of the product design and development process. Fundamentally sketching is the ‘first language’ of all designers and it is apparent that the design process can be limited by one’s capacity to use drawing for cognitive exploration. It is therefore essential that development of drawing skills is integrated throughout engineering education. This paper discusses curriculum initiatives aimed at developing a drawing culture amongst product design engineering students. ‘SketchFest’ is a sketching and ideation program that augments existing drawing skills, introduces new techniques and promotes student awareness of the value of sketching in product design and development.
