     It’s not an exaggeration to say that the idea in the design is generated by hand drawing. Supposing the ability affirms this view, the ability necessary for the designer is an ability to draw the line while thinking. While drawing the line through the pointing devices, such as ruler, two dimensions, threedimensional CAD, compared with hand drawing, it turns out sensuously that people’s brains are not working. If the work which draws the line with the idea is caught globally, it will help to cultivate industrial judgment and ability to think. On the other hand, it is the fact that the convenience of three-dimensional CAD is also remarkable, and it does not find the reason which it does not use. Then, it considered the hand drawing importance at the time of embodying the idea by using three-dimensional CAD as the design tool. In the main subject is 1) The usefulness of CAD and the collapse, 2) Hand drawing convenience, 3) Hand drawing culture, 4) Originality which the intuitive line and the intuitive color create, 5) Connection of the foundation and the tool in the education.

    The strategies used to solve a spatial orientation problem were deduced and analyzed, and the results suggested a possible relationship between the strategy used and the performance on item− and subject−based tests. The strategies used were deduced from the notations examinees made in the blank spaces in their test booklets. They used a wider range of strategies to solve the more complicated of the two problem items, and the strategies with systematization or abstraction had the highest performance for this item. The use of a systematic or highly abstracted strategy was related to the problem−solving ability of the examinee. This suggests that the selection of a strategy for solving a spatial problem indirectly reflects the examinee’s abilities in a specific subject area although knowledge in a specific subject area such as mathematics or science is not explicitly required to solve it.
