Abstract: This paper presents the design of a demonstration course on "Degradation and Aging" in polymer chemistry, developed in the context of environmental protection. By incorporating case-based teaching and a flipped classroom model, the course aims to expand students’ horizons while deepening their engagement with ideological and political education. Survey results indicate that the teaching case significantly increased students' interest in learning, facilitated the integration of theory and practice, and improved their research skills, environmental awareness, and sense of social responsibility, achieving the intended educational objectives.
