    Pada waktu pandemik ini, pengajaran tradisional langsung digantikan dengan praktek pengajaran daring. Dengan adanya perubahan-perubahan tersebut, tantangan-tantangan dan manfaat-manfaat berbeda pun telah meningkat dan dialami oleh para calon guru. Penelitian kualitatif multi-kasus ini berupaya untuk menginvestigasi tantangan-tantangan dan manfaat-manfaat yang ditemui oleh para calon guru Bahasa Inggris dalam praktek pengajaran daring mereka saat pandemik COVID-19. Data diambil dari sembilan calon guru Bahasa Inggris melalui wawancara daring. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa terdapat dua tantangan besar yang ditemukan, (1) tantangan yang berkaitan dengan partisipasi siswa ketika sesi pengajaran daring, dan (2) tantangan-tantangan teknis. Partisipan melaporkan bahwa keikutsertaan siswa pada saat praktik pengajaran online relatif rendah, beberapa siswa tidak mengumpulkan tugas tepat waktu, dan lebih memilih untuk mematikan kamera pada saat kelas sinkronis berlangsung. Sementara itu, masalah pada tantangan teknis ada pada perangkat-perangkat, koneksi internet, dan sinyal. Strategi dari partisipan untuk menanggulangi tantangan diantaranya dengan cara menghubungi guru kelas, menyajikan berbagai teknik mengajar untuk meningkatkan partisipasi siswa, dan mengganti perangkat serta internet data mereka. Manfaat- manfaat dari pengajaran daring berdasarkan respons partisipan diantaranya fleksibel, praktis, menghemat biaya dan waktu, tidak terhalang jarak dan waktu, lebih efisien, dan membantu untuk mengeksplor dan memanfaatkan perangkat digital

    Abstract
    During this pandemic time, conventional direct teaching is substituted with the online teaching practicum. With the substitutions, different challenges and benefits rose and were faced by the pre-service teachers. This qualitative multi-case study aims to investigate the challenges and benefits that the EFL pre-service teachers encountered in their online teaching practicum during the COVID-19 pandemic. The data were generated from nine pre-service English teachers through an online interview. The results show that there were two major challenges found, (1) challenges related to the student’s participation during the online teaching session, and (2) the technical challenges. Participants reported that the students’ involvement during the teaching practicum was relatively low, as evident in the number of students who showed up late during synchronous classes or failed to attend the class at all. Furthermore, some students did not submit their assignments on time, preferred to turn off the camera during synchronous classes, which made it difficult for the teacher to check their online presence. Participants also reported that the major problems on technical challenges were the devices, internet connection, and signals. The participants’ strategies to overcome the challenges were by contacting their home-room teachers, providing various teaching techniques in an attempt to increase students’ participation, and changing their devices and internet data. The benefits of online teaching based on the participants’ responses were flexible, practical, time and cost-saving, unhindered by distance and time, more efficient, can motivate us to be more creative, and help to explore and to utilize digital devices.

    Keywords: challenges, online, teaching practicum, pre-service English teachers, Covid-19 pandemic
