Abstract

The methods and quality of bilingual education has fundamental effects on ecolinguistics environment of ethnic minority areas. Efficient bilingual education can not only improve the language ecology system, but also advance the learning efficiency of ethnic minority students in all disciplines. From Halliday’s ecolinguistic research paradigm, this paper points out bilingual education in ethnic minority areas should suit the measures to differing conditions in terms of locality and time. On the basis of discussion on the current bilingual education status and problems, the paper indicates that four aspects of bilingual education, namely curriculum designing, textbooks developing, teacher training and educational resources developing, should obey the ecological rules.
