Abstract

The Unit Integral Teaching design is of significant importance for the comprehensive development of students' abilities and meeting the requirements of the New Curriculum Standards for Junior High School. This paper, based on the background of the "double reduction" policy, adopted purposive sampling to select two English teachers in China as research subjects. Using interview surveys, the study recorded teachers' understanding, application methods, application effects, and manifestations in homework of Unit Integral Teaching design. Additionally, this paper combined various literature studies and designed a template for combining unit integral teaching with English homework based on the design of the junior high school People's Education Press textbook. The aim is to explore the significance of unit integral teaching in current Chinese junior high school English classrooms and its impact on English homework. Through learning, investigation, and discussion, the final results showed that the unit integral teaching design approach achieved improvements in homework completion, student performance, student ability, and teacher-student relationships. Therefore, based on the research finding, we can infer that unit integral teaching to junior high school English homework can have an optimizing effect on homework, which has positive significance for classroom teaching and student development.
