Abstract

This study investigated teachers’ expectation for students that lead to the choice of assessment types and the considered factors in grading decision making. Two teachers from different public senior high school were selected. The phenomenon where the positive teaching expectations deliberately lead to high student achievement (Pygmalion effect) is found in this study. The results show that positive teachers’ expectation for students will be reflected through their positive body language and give learning instruction more challenging for those who can fulfill their expectation i.e high achievement students. The expectations are dealing with students’ active participation the class and manner or attitude. Henceforth, teachers give more concern in applying informal assessment in grading students’ achievement in which process is more concerned instead of result. In addition, their expectations for students are used in considered factor in grading students’ achievement that is reflected in the report cards. Low achievement students could receive disadvantageous learning condition because of teachers’ expectation influencing their performance in a negative way, as grant their grade in report cards does not measure their real achievement.

Abstract

EFL is a foreign language abbreviation for English. This is mainly used to talk about students (whose first language is not English) learning English while living in their own country. In the EFL classroom , the teacher usually switches the code to make students understand what the teacher is saying. The aim of this article is to present the use and functions of code switching in the classroom of the EFL. The subject of this study was English for a nursing class with 30 students and an English lecturer at Sultan Agung University Semarang. The activity was recorded in this EFL classroom for about 90 minutes and the code switching functions were analyzed on the basis of Hyme's (1962) framework. The study suggests that the use of code switching and mother tongue would facilitate the learning of foreign languages. Mother tongue could therefore be an important and useful element to help learners learn a foreign language during the learning process.

This research applied basic interpretive qualitative research, and used open-ended questionnaire and semi structured interview as technique of collecting data.
