Abstract

A unit serves as the fundamental component carrying the thematic significance. Implementing integrated teaching at the unit level should be guided by thematic significance, supported by discourse, and facilitated through activities. This approach aids students in enhancing language abilities, refining learning skills, fostering cultural awareness, improving cognitive quality, and ultimately promoting the formation of core competencies in English. This article, based on a unit teaching case, presents a framework for integrated unit teaching design: textbook analysis, understanding student needs, content integration, goal setting, and activity design.
