This project is broken into five chapters, with chapter one covering the study’s history, objective, research questions, significance, scope, and definition of words.

The second chapter is devoted to a survey of relevant literature. Methodology, population, instruments, technique for data analysis, instrument validation, and data collection via administering questionnaires to a subset of students are covered in the third chapter.

The fourth chapter is also devoted to analysis, interpretation, and result discussion. Here, the research identifies the issues that students face during their teaching practicum, such as a lack of teaching tools, as well as the solutions to these issues. The fifth chapter concludes with a summary, conclusion, and recommendations for future research and references.
