Teaching Design for the Integration of Senior High School English and Local Culture under the Guidance of CLIL

Learning and using English is of great significance and plays an important role in spreading Chinese culture and enhancing mutual understanding and communication between China and other countries. With the continuous increase of foreign economic and cultural exchange activities in Western ethnic minority areas, the importance of cultivating foreign languages among ethnic minorities has been highlighted. The CLIL concept has received high recognition in foreign language teaching at all stages in China. However, there are currently not many discussions and studies on cultural content in CLIL. Therefore, based on the guidance of the CLIL concept, this study wants to design a teaching plan for the integration of high school English and local culture in the Xizang region, aiming to enhance the English learning interest and oral English expression ability of high school students in the Xizang region.
