The dual simplex method for linear programming problems has always been a key and challenging topic in the teaching of operations research. By developing a thorough understanding of the dual simplex method and aiming to design an accessible teaching approach, this paper systematically designs a teaching strategy for the dual simplex method. The goal is to help students more easily understand its principles and grasp the relationship between the dual simplex method and the simplex method. The model of using a single numerical example throughout the entire teaching process is simpler and more intuitive, allowing for a more systematic introduction to the dual simplex method and enabling students to better comprehend the essence of the algorithm.
