Sketching is a critical part of the design process. But many people skip sketching because they are intimidated by it or they think it will be faster not to do it. The truth is that you design better and faster when you sketch. Even if you are uncomfortable sketching you should still do it to improve your designs.

In this course we break down what the purpose of sketching is, why you should do it, and how you (yes even you!) can do it. We will learn an important tool, the visual alphabet, to help you get comfortable sketching.
