ABSTRACT
This chapter discusses the results of the survey, offer the demographic breakdown, and include the responses to open answer questions. The survey was divided into three categories: design educators, design students, and design practitioners. Sketching in the practice of a design is not only an effective skill to develop and practice, but also, “a way to mediate and negotiate new information that comes to us in the process of observation”. The chapter also discusses questions designed for both educators and students. These questions discuss the importance of sketching and the role of a sketchbook in design education. Some designers would rather use loose paper instead of a sketchbook because it is easier to show other designers, clients, photocopy, and discuss among their teams. A sketch, for designers, is a quick and rough drawing with enough details to communicate an idea or a concept.
