Abstract

The majority of Indonesians can speak two or more languages. Code-switching is the practice of language changing or switching to another, which is highly widespread in bilingual and multilingual communities like Indonesia. Code-switching is a phenomenon that also happens throughout the teaching process in ELT classrooms. English is chosen as the medium of instruction in several contexts in Indonesia. One of the contexts is when pre-service English teachers use English as their primary language of teaching. The study aims to explore pre-service English teachers’ perspectives on code-switching in their Speaking classes. The study was performed at the English Education Department in one of the state universities in Jember, Indonesia. An interview was utilized to generate the data. Three pre-service English teachers were voluntarily taken as the participants. The data were analyzed using Thematic Analysis. There were three key perceptions identified from the participants' responses, namely positive attitude, negative attitude, and suggestion on code-switching implementation.

Abstract

In recent decades, character education in language education has been discussed and studied. Textbooks are an important role to channel certain character education values. The readers not only get knowledge about academic materials but also get good values represented in the book. ELT textbooks used in secondary schools are no exception. In response to this, this article reports on a critical discourse analysis study that examines how character education values according PPK program are represented in English textbooks published by the Indonesian Ministry of Education and Culture using qualitative research design. Semiotic analysis shows that ELT textbooks represent character education values presented in the form of visual artifacts. The findings conclude that visual artifacts in textbooks do not always depict character education values. Therefore, textbook writers and teachers need to consider the values when developing and using ELT textbooks.
