Abstract
The new education system in Egypt (Education 2.0), introduced in September 2018, aimed to encourage students to learn, think, and innovate. The Ministry of Education and Technical Education did not offer a lesson planning model for the new curriculum. Thus, this research suggested a lesson planning model based on Understanding by Design (UbD) to achieve the goals of TEFL in the new education system. The research adopted the descriptive method approach. A semi-structured interview were administered to seven EFL experts at The Ministry of Education and Technical Education. Analysis of their answers revealed that they believed that the suggested lesson planning model based on UbD could achieve the goals of TEFL in the new education system.
