Regarding the 50/50 Rule, is it better to wait until I finish ALL the homework for a given lesson (so not just one little section e.g. 5 pages of the lines exercises.) before going to have free time drawing whatever or after finishing a section of homework. I generally have enough time to finish one section within 1-2 days.
Well, there are times when you will run into homework that is just too long.
If you do the assignments as you mention in your comment, you will usually end up not understanding much of the lesson content.
Since each section of the homework is somewhat different and doing them without intermissions of something else will make your mind scramble.
It is better, in my opinion, to take a "drawing time" to do the homework, and the next time to draw the 50/50 rule.
That way, you will never feel fatigued by how long the assigned task may be.
Rapid Viz is a book after mine own heart, and exists very much in the same spirit of the concepts that inspired Drawabox. It's all about getting your ideas down on the page, doing so quickly and clearly, so as to communicate them to others. These skills are not only critical in design, but also in the myriad of technical and STEM fields that can really benefit from having someone who can facilitate getting one person's idea across to another.
Where Drawabox focuses on developing underlying spatial thinking skills to help facilitate that kind of communication, Rapid Viz's quick and dirty approach can help students loosen up and really move past the irrelevant matters of being "perfect" or "correct", and focus instead on getting your ideas from your brain, onto the page, and into someone else's brain as efficiently as possible.
