Based on the former research, the thesis argues that the essence of Integrated Curriculum is a theory and practice of curriculum development. According to the division and opposition of curriculum factors, Integrated Curriculum is designed to weaken the bounds of subjects gradually. Teachers and students coordinate their efforts to choose important issues and topics on social life, which is the major means of curriculum organization. According to these issues and topics, they carry out teaching activities in a democratic and cooperative learning environment. In this case, students are encouraged to integrate themselves with social culture. In our information society, the core of curriculum development is to construct a curriculum culture associated with information culture, and realize the integration of students and information culture.In accordance with the essence of Curriculum Integration, the thesis explores the ways to realize the theory and practice of curriculum development in light of instructional design. Teaching design is an instructional design which is based on media design and environment design.
