	The Designer’s Duty and the Case for Teaching Ecological Ethics	Includes design for the Third World; design of teaching and training equipment for the mentally and physically handicapped; design of pharmaceutical, surgical, dental, and hospital equipment; design for experimental research; systematic design for sustaining human life in marginalized situations; and design for breaking stereotypes.
	The Case for Teaching Integrated Aesthetic Qualities	The case highlights aesthetic qualities, emphasizing the need for broad aesthetic knowledge and experience to create designs that move people.
“Sustainable Design Practice” Case Cluster	Designing into the Circular Economy Teaching Case	Introduces how to incorporate the concept of circular economy in design to reduce resource wastage and improve resource utilization efficiency.
	Designing into Carbon Footprint Teaching Cases	Describes how to consider the size of your carbon footprint in your design to reduce carbon emissions and minimize your impact on the environment.
	The Case for Teaching Ecological Design	Describes how to incorporate eco-design concepts in design to improve the sustainability of ecosystems.
	A Teaching Case for Green Design for Climate Suitability in the Lingnan Region	Introduces how to use traditional green wisdom, as well as green energy, in the design of regional contexts to reduce energy consumption and environmental pollution, and to master the basic strategies of local green, energy-saving, and healthy design.
	Teaching examples of sustainable design for urban and rural environments	An introduction to how to incorporate the concept of sustainability in design to improve the sustainability of cities and villages.
“Contextualized practical training” case clusters	Teaching examples of sustainable design for urban and rural environments	Large enterprises have stronger production capacity, complete facilities and advanced research means, relying on enterprises to build course cases, including communication, decision-making and summarization of situational practice, to provide students with more realistic practical training and practice scenarios.
“Contextualized practical training” case clusters	Examples of contextualized teaching with associations	Taking advantage of the large number of industry associations and member companies in the Bay Area, we actively recommend scenario-based practical training with the associations, including the identification and analysis of situational practices, so as to promote the organic connection between the training of students and the certification of professional qualifications.
