Drawing or sketching quickly and casually without much planning, often while doing something else like listening to a lecture.
Originally from the German word 'Dödel' (a silly person), the term 'doodle' first appeared in English in the 1920s. It evolved to mean the silly, purposeless drawings that people make absentmindedly.
Studies show that doodling actually helps you focus and remember information better—your brain is staying active while appearing to fidget, which is why students often sketch during lessons.
