Abstract

Under the background of globalization, college English teaching transcends the mere cultivation of linguistic proficiency to serve as an integral component in developing intercultural communication competence. As an important gem of Chinese civilization, Bashu culture has a rich historical and cultural background, providing unique and rich resources for college English teaching. Moreover, the development of smart education has provided new means and platforms for the integration of Bashu culture into college English teaching. This paper takes Unit 4, "Let’s Go" from New Horizon College English (book 3) as an example. By integrating Bashu cultural resources and adopting an online-offline blended teaching model, it constructs a trinity teaching framework of "language + culture + technology" and a Bashu cultural integration path of "perception - understanding - dissemination," aiming to enhance students' language ability and cultural literacy.
