Abstract With “chemical reaction and thermal energy” as the project theme and “design and production of self-heating lunch box” as the project carrier, the CDIO engineering education mode was applied to carry out project-based learning activities. By completing four CDIO sub-projects namely “conceiving lunch box heating scheme” “designing and drawing engineering drawings” “learning and applying 3D printing technology” and “achievement report and evaluation”, students could deeply learn chemical knowledge such as chemical reaction and thermal energy and polymer materials, train mathematical and economic thinking, and cultivate aesthetic design ability and rigorous scientific and engineering thinking. Finally, students established the value concept of using interdisciplinary knowledge and ability to help the sustainable development of human society and developed the core literacy.
