Abstract: As the society enters the information era, the limitations of traditional engineering training courses have become more and more prominent, and engineering training courses under the vision of general education need to be created extensively. In order to explore the paths and methods of transforming traditional engineering training courses into general education courses, this paper takes the course of “Design and Manufacture of Mechanical Handicraft Works” as a case study, summarizes the practical experience in terms of teaching objectives, contents, modes, management and evaluation mechanisms, and provides new ideas for teaching mode reform.
