Abstract

The 3U approach to digital learning resources: Unit-University-UNESCO, was developed in July 2025 with inspiration from the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Utilizing technology and artificial intelligence, the project redesigns each unit of an English course into a short video that extends lesson content while integrating images, interactive activities, and highlights from the university alongside selected SDG themes. These resources support first-year students at Ho Chi Minh City University of Economics and Finance (UEF) in developing their listening, speaking, and writing skills. At the same time, they serve as a unique platform to present the university in English and to connect local learning contexts with global educational priorities.

Following implementation, a survey of 317 students was carried out to assess the project's impact. The results showed improvements in speaking confidence, vocabulary learning, and SDG awareness. The 3U approach shows how digitalised resources may improve language learning, increase student engagement, and support the larger goal of education for sustainable development by connecting curriculum-based content with institutional identity and international ideals.
