Abstract

Code-switching is an inevitable phenomenon that often happens inside a foreign or second English classroom. However, this phenomenon is often treated like the elephant in the room: the teacher recognizes its presence but is never really aware of it. While many studies regarding code-switching topics in EFL classrooms only focus on analyzing the type of teacher's code-switching. This study aims to seek out the pedagogical functions behind the teacher's decision to code-switch and determine the students' perception towards the teacher's code-switching. The classroom observation and two interview sessions are conducted with one teacher and three participants by applying a case study. It is found that the student's shallow English proficiency influences the student's perception of code-switching, and the teacher is very conscious of the pedagogical functions when she decided to code-switch.

Abstract

This research investigated the impact of Jigsaw Cooperative Learning on improving reading comprehension among Grade VIII EFL learners in Karawang, West Java, Indonesia. Adopting a Classroom Action Research (CAR) framework grounded in Kemmis and McTaggart’s model, the study involved 44 students and utilized structured observation checklists alongside semi-structured interviews to gather data. The findings demonstrated that the Jigsaw approach significantly enhanced students’ reading comprehension by fostering expert group collaboration and joint text interpretation. Learners exhibited heightened engagement, more active participation, and a generally favorable attitude toward the instructional strategy. This study offers a valuable contribution to the field of EFL instruction, particularly in the domains of cooperative learning and curriculum design. Moreover, by employing a qualitative lens, it addresses a notable gap in the predominantly quantitative literature, offering deeper insights into the interactive and social dimensions of collaborative learning within Indonesian EFL classrooms.
