Abstract

In Indonesia, English is a compulsory subject that is learnt by students for the first time in junior high school. Although the teachers are expected to use English in the classroom, sometimes students do not understand the explanation. Code switching becomes a natural part of classroom interaction in foreign language classroom. Therefore, this study aimed to explain the use of code switching, students perceived the teachers’ code switching, the students respond to the teacher’s code-switching practices and the influence of teachers’ code-switching practices on students’ understanding in the teaching learning process. It was conducted at SMP N 1 Comal. The method used in this research was qualitative study. To get the data, researcher used observation, video recording, questionnaire and interview. The results of the study showed that first there were six functions of code switching in the foreign language classroom, those are to explain grammar, to manage classroom, to index a stance of empathy or solidarity, to translate words, to help students when they have difficulty in understanding and to emphasis some points. Second, the students preferred a combination of Indonesia and English in the classroom. Third, there were five responses from students in the teaching learning process, those were specific response, choral response, open-ended or students initiated response, silence and laughter.

Lexical bundle is a word combinations that usually hangs together. By identifying the lexical bundles, we can see what native usually say and or write in certain register. Therefore, the identification the lexical bundles would indicate to what extend the speaker speak native-like. The objectives of the study are (1) to compare the lexical bundles’ frequencies in conversation texts between Four Corners and English Intensive Course books, (2) to compare the lexical bundles’ structures in conversation texts between Four Corners and English Intensive Course books, (3) to compare the lexical bundles’ functions in conversation texts books between Four Corners and English Intensive Course books. This study is a corpus study. The data are the conversation texts which existed in two textbooks; Four Corners with native authors and English Intensive Course with non-native authors. The result revealed that (1) the frequency of lexical bundles in Four Corners are higher than in English Intensive Course books, (2) both Four Corners and English Intensive Course books more frequent in using lexical bundle that incorporate verb phrase fragments, (3) the dominant function of lexical bundles used in two textbooks are special function, most of them consist of simply inquiry. Theoretically, this research contributes to other researchers as a building block for its literature contribution in their review in the case of the similarity and the difference of the lexical bundles’ frequencies, structures, and functions.
