Teaching practicum is one of the compulsory courses that pre-service ESL teachers have to accomplish prior to the completion of their study. Under the lens of experiential learning theory, this study aims to find out pre-service English teachers’ challenges of teaching practicum and how they overcome them. Interviews were used as instruments in this multiple case study, focusing on three pre-service English teachers who participated in the AJARMI program during the 2022–2023 academic year. The findings of this study were analyzed using thematic analysis. The PSETs faced challenges related to students' behaviour, preparation of instructional materials, and mentoring. They handled them with organizing lessons, acting as an assertive teacher, devising a backup plan, and adapting to the school system. The implications of this study suggest that teacher education programs should provide more comprehensive training on classroom management, instructional material preparation, and effective mentoring strategies to better prepare pre-service teachers for the realities of the classroom.

This qualitative study explores students' perceptions of gamification, a strategy incorporating game-like elements into education, to understand its impact on contemporary learning. The objective is to assess whether students view gamification as a positive or negative tool for learning in the classroom. Five students with prior experience using gamification participated in the study, selected through purposive sampling. The primary method of data collection was in-depth interviews. Findings indicate that students generally perceive gamification positively. Benefits noted include increased enjoyment and interactivity in learning, enhanced motivation and competitive spirit, and the development of critical thinking, problem-solving, and collaboration skills. However, the study also identifies several challenges associated with gamification, namely technical and accessibility issues, potential reduction in personal interaction, an overemphasis on competition, and distractions from educational objectives.
