A Brief Analysis of Application of Case Method of Instruction in Automobile Design Course Teaching

摘要

As one of the required courses for automobile majors, automobile design course has an extensive application value in some specialized courses, such as automobile structure, auto mechanical design, engineering mechanics, electronic instrument, etc. It is an important technical service in these courses, and also a specialized course that vocational education students must be proficient in for getting engaged in automobile design in future. Automobile design course is one of the specialized courses in the automobile engineering field, covering automobile mechanics, electronic technology, and engineering mechanics. By taking this course, students can learn to make comprehensive assessment on automobile structure and performance, and scientifically select a structure design scheme and related parameters. Automobile design course actually is a course requiring students to have strong operating ability, and the knowledge should be applied widely and put into practice. Hence, we should focus on how to effectively link the knowledge points in teaching process. The case method of instruction can largely facilitate automobile design course. In this paper, the application of the case method of instruction in automobile design course teaching is analyzed based on the actual situation, with a hope to help the peers.
