Abstract

Big-unit teaching under the leadership of large concepts is a key path to change teaching concepts and cultivate students' core qualities. Under the theme of ‘Inheriting Chinese Excellent Traditional Culture’, the first step is to start from the construction of a large concept of unit teaching, and then lead to the design of secondary core concepts to form a group of unit concepts. At the same time, we design unit learning objectives that are closely related to the core qualities, and plan interdisciplinary contexts for big-unit teaching activities, with the aim of enabling students to deeply understand and pass on the excellent traditional Chinese culture in practice. In addition, emphasis is placed on combining process evaluation with summative evaluation to ensure the effectiveness of teaching and learning. Through this series of design and implementation, we seek to improve the effectiveness of fostering students' disciplinary core literacy, and lay a solid foundation for cultivating young people with a deep cultural heritage and a sense of responsibility for the times.
