ABSTRACT

Dipta, Dinar. S891402017. (2015). A Case Study of Code-Switching Strategies by English Teachers in the Accelerated Classroom Program. Thesis. Consultant I: Prof. Riyadi Santoso, M.Ed., Ph.D.; Consultant II: Dr. Hersulastuti, M. Hum. English Education, Graduate Program, Universitas Sebelas Maret, Surakarta, Indonesia. language learning cannot be separated from native language (Margana, 2013). Highlighting this contradictory phenomenon, this study is aimed to identify the occurrences of teachers’ code-switching while teaching English in the classroom. Especially, this study focused on the analysis of the grammatical patterns, types, factors, and functions of code-switching. Moreover, this study revealed to what extend these code-switching affect the students’ performance.

This study was a qualitative case study which produced descriptive data. The data were all of the code-switching performed by the English teachers in the form of expressions. In order to complete the source of data, supporting documents and some informants were involved in this study. Coping with the aims of the study, purposive sampling was used to collect the samples under the consideration that the samplings were teaching English in the accelerated classroom. Observation, documentation, and interview were conducted to collect the data. Those were interpreted descriptively. To enhance the trustworthiness of the data analysis, the triangulation technique was used. After being checked, the data were analyzed based on Spradley’s Ethnographic Analysis (1979).

The results pointed out that there were two grammatical patterns of code-switching performed; free-morpheme, and equivalence constraints. Regarding to the patterns, the types of code-switching were categorized as tag-switching, intersentential switching, and intrasentential switching. The results also described the factors initiating the teachers to switch code; participant, topic, situation, solidarity, and status. These analyses led to the functions of teachers’ code-switching in teaching process; quotation, interjection, message qualification, addressee specification, reiteration, and personalization versus objectification. Moreover, it was revealed that these code-switching gave a good impact on the students’ performance. In conclusion, the result of this study supported the second theory which allows the use of various languages as a medium of teaching English in the accelerated classroom.
