Lesson Study: A Handbook of Teacher-led Instructional Change

Title: Lesson Study: A Handbook of Teacher-led Instructional Change
Abstract/Description: Lesson study - the form of professional development long favoured by Japanese teachers - has recently been initiated by teachers at many sites across North America. This handbook illuminates both the key ideas underlying lesson study and the practical support needed to make it succeed in any subject area. Nine chapters address topics including the basic steps of lesson study, supports, misconceptions, system impact and how to pioneer lesson study in your setting. The handbook provides practical resources including schedules, data collection examples, protocols for lesson discussion and observation and instructional plans for mathematics, science and language arts.
