Abstract

This study aims to analyze the use of code-mixing by students and lecturers in speaking classes at the English Education Study Program of Khairun University. The focus of the research is to identify the types of code mix used and the factors that encourage code mix in the learning process. This study used a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques through direct observation and in-depth interviews. The research subjects consisted of 45 first-semester students and one lecturer of “Speaking for Everyday Communication” course. The results of the observation research show that there are three types of code mix used, namely insertion, alternation, and congruent lexicalization, with insertion type as the most dominant form used by lecturers. In addition, of the 13 factors causing code-mixing, the interview results revealed three dominant factors that encourage the use of code-mixing by students and lecturers, namely (1) the use of more popular terms that are more easily understood by students, (2) the subject matter containing foreign terms or difficult concepts, and (3) the limitations of code usage in the use of English vocabulary which is the main obstacle in classroom communication. The findings reveal that the use of code-mixing is an important adaptation strategy for both parties in improving the understanding of teaching materials and facilitating communication in the learning process.

Abstract

This study aims to investigate students’ competence in transforming active sentences into passive sentences and to identify the common errors frequently made in the process. A mixed-method approach, combining quantitative and qualitative methods, was employed in this research. The data were collected through a written test administered to 28 fourth-semester students from Class B of the English Language Education Study Program at Khairun University. The results revealed that the students’ average score was 51.25, which falls into the “poor” category. Furthermore, the analysis indicated several types of common errors made by students when transforming active sentences into passive ones. These include incorrect use of verb forms, tense formation errors, misuse or omission of prepositions such as “by”, and mistakes in placing agents or subjects within passive constructions. Among these, tense formation errors emerged as the most dominant problem, suggesting that many students lack a sufficient understanding of tense consistency when converting active sentences into passive forms. These highlight that students still lack a comprehensive understanding of the grammatical rules and syntactic structure involved in the process of transforming active sentences into passive ones. Therefore, mastery of passive transformation requires not only grammatical accuracy but also a deeper understanding of sentence logic and structure
