Abstract
Abstract: Code-Switching in EFL Classrooms: Typology and Communicative Roles. The purpose of this study was to look into the types and functions of code-switching that are used in an EFL teacher classroom interactions. The teachers interactions with the students were observed, recorded and subsequently transcribed. Then, a multi-step analytical procedure that included data reduction, data visualization, and drawing/verifying findings was carried out. The results indicated that the teacher used three different types of as well as six functions of code-switching during interactions in the classroom. The types include tag switching (12), intra-sentential switching (37), and inter-sentential switching (62). Besides, the researcher found that the code-switching used by the teacher has the referential function (2), the directive function (31), the expressive function (20), the phatic function (18), the metalinguistic function (26) times, and poetic function (3). Thus, the use of code-switching in class interactions can help students’ comprehension and engagement in English language learning.

Abstrak: Pergantian Kode dalam Kelas EFL: Tipologi dan Peran Komunikatif. Tujuan
penelitian ini adalah untuk menyelidiki tipe dan fungsi pergantian kode yang digunakan
guru dalam mengajar Bahasa Inggris sebagai Bahasa Asing (EFL). Selama proses
pembelajaran berlangsung, interaksi antara guru dan siswa diamati, direkam, dan kemudian ditranskripsi. Selanjutnya, prosedur analisis data dilakukan secara berjenjang yang mencakup reduksi data, visualisasi data, serta penarikan/verifikasi temuan penelitian. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa dalam proses interaksi dengan siswa selama pembelajaran berlangsung, guru telah menggunakan tiga jenis tipe serta enam fungsi pergantian kode yang berbeda. Jenis pergantian kode meliputi pergantian tag (12), pergantian intra-kalimat (37), dan pergantian antar-kalimat (62). Selain itu, peneliti menemukan bahwa pergantian kode yang digunakan oleh guru memiliki fungsi referensial (2), fungsi direktif (31), fungsi ekspresif (20), fungsi fatis (18), fungsi metalinguistik (26) kali, dan fungsi puisi (3). Dengan demikian, pergantian kode dalam interaksi pembelajaran di kelas bermanfaat untuk membantu pemahaman dan keterlibatan siswa dalam proses pembelajaran Bahasa Inggris seraya mempertimbangkan level kemampuan siswa.
Kata kunci: pergantian code, kelas EFL, studi kualitatif.
