Since the founding of New China, the country in addition to investigate and research the minority musicians, takes into consideration the special education and minority musical heritage and the establishment of different forms and characteristics of art institutions. In the inheritance and development of folk music, the advantages of school education cannot be ignored. We should pay attention to the inheritance and development of folk music in college music reform, so that music education has become a platform to promote the national music culture.展开更多

The paper discusses different pedagogical methods, learning materials, and learners' status. The most important mission of schools is to increase public awareness about their linguistic environment which helps reassert minority identity through language acquisition and linguistic maintenance. Implementing an educational language curriculum for regional languages constitutes a main step towards the preservation of linguistic minorities. According to the informants interviewed during the fieldwork, both groups express positive reactions towards the presence of Gallo at school (group 1--80%; group 2--92.9%). However, in follow-up discussions, a certain number of older speakers seem to be more reluctant, because the variety of Gallo taught at school is different from the one which was transmitted to them. In conclusion, bilingual and immersion programs are increasingly successful in Brittany and could lead to a wider recognition of Eastern Brittany's language and culture.展开更多
