Abstract: Language is an essential mean of communication in teaching and learning activities. Specifically, in the English Language Education Study Program (ELESP) that employs English as the main instructional language for teaching and learning activities. Considering that English was not students’ first language, some lecturers employed code switching to help third-semester students in learning English. With regard to this phenomenon, this study addressed two research questions. First, what the types of code switching ELESP lecturers employ in their instructional languages are and second, what the reasons for ELESP lecturers to employ code switching in their instructional languages are. This study belonged to a basic interpretative study. It employed interview guidelines to understand the experiences of the lecturers who employed code switching. The results of this study showed that the lecturers employed both situational and metaphorical code switching. In addition, the writer found that the participants of the study code-switched for the reasons which can be classified into topic, addressee, emphasis, persuasion, solidarity, affection, nature of the subject and strategy. The results of the study also revealed that the use of code switching in lecturers’ instructional languages was mainly for the students’ understanding. DOI: https://doi.org/10.24071/llt.2016.190105

Abstract: Code switching is a phenomenon that exists in bilingual/multilingual societies like in
Indonesia where people use more than one language to communicate including in the process
of teaching English at SMPN 8 Mataram in the academic year 2017/2018. Based on
preliminary research, the teacher practiced code switching in order to help them in delivering
materials. In process of code switc hing, the teachers practiced more bahasa Indonesia than
English. The aims of this study were to investigate (1) the types and the functions of teacher
code switching, (2) the reasons teacher used code switching in ELT classroom. This research
was conducted through descriptive qualitative method. Simple random sampling technique is
used to determine the research subject. It decided two English teachers were choosen as the
research subject. In collecting data, observation, note taking and interview is used. Data
reduction, data display and conclusion drawing or verification in analyzing the data is used.
The finding was based on the theory of wardaugh (1986), there were two types of code
switching: situational code switching and metaphorical code switching. The functions of
code switching used by the English teachers were found for three functions: topic switch,
affective function and repetitive function. And there were some reasons of the teacher used

TL;DR: The results show that the use of code switching of Javanese-Indonesian during performances occurs frequently and situational code switching is more frequent used by the characters of the puppet rather than metaphorical code switching.
Abstract: This study aims to investigate the types, the factors, and the functions in employing code switching in a puppet show in Lamongan. The method used by the writer in conducting this study was by observing three times performances and interviewing a puppeteer. The data were collected by recording the performances and transcribing the utterances of the puppeteer on a paper. The data were classified by the writer into two types of code switching; situational code switching and metaphorical code switching based on Holmes’ theory (2001). The factors which influenced the use of code switching in this study such as participants, setting/scene, topic, and function were also identified by the writer through Holmes’ theory (2001). However, the writer used Gumperz’ theory in identifying the functions of code switching which occurred during performances. The results show that the use of code switching of Javanese-Indonesian during performances occurs frequently. The second, situational code switching is more frequent used by the characters of the puppet rather than metaphorical code switching; situational code switching were found about 58, while metaphorical code switching were found about 11. The third, the use of code switching by the characters of puppet are mostly influenced by the participant and the function. The last, situational code switching carries many functions such as interjection, message qualification, addressee specification, personalization versus objectification, and reiteration. Besides that, situational code switching also carries other functions such as motivating friends, giving advice, joking, making compliment and so on.
TL;DR: The data analysis revealed that the factors that caused code switching were to fulfil a need, to express or declare solidarity, to respect the listener and to be more informative.
