differences between spatial thinking and imagery thinking are showed. The two basic features of
spatial thinking are analyzed. It is pointed out that targeted training topics should be designed for
developing and improving the students’ spatial thinking ability in drawing teaching according to
the characteristics of spatial thinking. Meanwhile, the introduction of 3D graphics software can
also promote the improvement of students' space thinking ability. In a word, to cultivate the
students' space thinking ability must both strengthen the drawing practice training and guide them
through the correct method of thinking.
