Abstract

Code-switching (CS) is one of the communicative strategies used in defining and structuring social relationships of speakers. In this study, we demonstrate how teachers perceive and employ CS in a Malaysian Chinese Independent School (MCIS) English classrooms to achieve communicative intents and to create a sense of belonging among students. Ethnography recording of classroom discourse and semi-structured interviews with seven English teachers were employed. The analysis reveals a noteworthy commitment that CS does not only act as a pedagogical tool but also as a means of facilitating interpersonal communication in class.
马来西亚华人独立中学英语教师语码转换的认知与实践
语码转换是一种用于定义和构建说话人社会关系的交际策略。在本研究中,我们展示了教师如何在马来西亚华人独立学校(MCIS)的英语课堂中感知和使用CS来实现交际意图并在学生中创造归属感。采用民族志法记录课堂话语,并对7名英语教师进行半结构化访谈。分析揭示了一个值得注意的承诺,即计算机科学不仅作为一种教学工具,而且作为促进课堂上人际交流的手段。
