Thoughts and Practices on Integrating Outstanding Traditional Chinese Culture into Secondary Vocational English Teaching: A Case Study Based on FLTRP's Basic Module 1 for Secondary Vocational English

In the context of globalization, English, as a universal language, plays a vital role in all types of educational institutions. However, while emphasizing its practicality and international relevance, it is equally important not to overlook its close connection with cultural inheritance. For secondary vocational students, who are at a critical stage in shaping their worldview, outlook on life, and values, integrating outstanding traditional Chinese culture into English teaching can not only enrich the curriculum and enhance student engagement, but also foster cultural confidence and promote their all-round development. Therefore, this paper takes Basic Module 1 of the Foreign Language Teaching and Research Press (FLTRP) English textbook for secondary vocational education as a case study to explore thoughts and practical approaches to incorporating traditional Chinese culture into vocational English teaching.
