Abstract: Case-based teaching is a teaching method based on practical cases, which is very suitable for engineering courses with strong applicability. In the Thermodynamics Fundamentals course, case-based teaching can help students better understand and apply the knowledge they have learned, improve their engineering practice experience and modern engineering literacy. The combination of teaching content and practical problems allows students to learn relevant knowledge by analyzing and solving practical problems. Case-based teaching emphasizes the guidance of teachers and the exploration of students, cultivating students' innovation and practical abilities. This teaching method can not only cultivate students' motivation and interest in learning, but also improve their practical ability and problem-solving ability. Case-based teaching is a very effective teaching method, which is worth being widely used in the Thermodynamics Fundamentals course.

Key words: Case-based teaching; Learning interest; Thermodynamics fundamentals; Teaching method

摘要： 案例式教学是一种以实际案例为基础的教学方法，非常适合应用性强的工科课程。在 热工基础课程中，采用案例式教学可以让学生更好地理解和应用所学知识，提高其工程实践 经验和现代工程师素养。教学内容与实际问题相结合，让学生通过分析和解决实际问题来学 习相关知识。案例式教学强调教师的引导和学生的探究，培养学生的创新和实践能力。这种 教学方式一方面能培养学生的学习动力和兴趣；另一方面可以提高学生动手实践能力和解决 问题能力，值得在热工基础课程中广泛应用。
