Abstract: As an effective pedagogical approach grounded in Compulsory Education Curriculum Standards, the Teaching-learning-assessment Alignment is attracting increasing attention from educators and researchers alike. However, in practical teaching scenarios, instructional activities frequently encounter imbalances among the essential components of educational objectives, discontinuities within the contextual design of these activities, and a relatively monotonous evaluation system for teaching. Consequently, the following measures are imperative: aligning with core competency requirements to clearly define the educational goals; prioritizing the optimization of contextual teaching to enrich both content and formats of instructional activities; and enhancing the overall teaching framework to emphasize the pivotal role of effectiveness-driven performance.

Key words: teaching-learning-assessment alignment, junior high school English, English Curriculum Standards of Compulsory Education
