This paper systematically examines the construction and practice of an ecological teaching mode in the Graduate Public English course at Zhengzhou University of Aeronautics, exploring its application and effectiveness in college English education. The literature review analyzes relevant theories on ecological teaching both domestically and internationally, starting from the perspective of ecosystem theory and its impact on education. It proposes basic principles of the ecological teaching mode, such as sustainability, interactivity, and holism. Through a combination of qualitative and quantitative research methods, specific teaching practice schemes are designed, and the implementation effects of the ecological teaching mode are evaluated through data collection and analysis. The study finds that the ecological teaching mode significantly enhances students' English application abilities and learning motivation, fosters interaction between teachers and students, and establishes a positive learning ecological environment. Case studies reveal that during the implementation of ecological teaching at Zhengzhou University of Aeronautics, teachers continuously adjust their teaching strategies based on student feedback, effectively improving teaching quality and student satisfaction. This paper concludes by summarizing the practical value of the ecological teaching mode and proposing future research directions, emphasizing the importance of an ecological perspective in the field of foreign language education and its potential policy implications.
