Code-Switching in a Turkish Secondary School.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Eldridge, John – ELT Journal, 1996
Analyzes English-as-a-Second-Language students' code-switching in a Turkish school. The article shows that no empirical evidence exists supporting the notion that restricting mother tongue use would improve learning efficiency and that most classroom code-switching is intentional.
