Lesson Study-based Teacher Education

  • Type: Book

  • Published: 2021-05-26

  • Publisher: Routledge

The philosophy of Lesson Study in Japan—teacher ownership, teacher professionalism, student learning-focused dialogue, teacher collaboration, and teacher professional community—has attracted educators and researchers worldwide. However, Lesson Study does not have the same meaning as its original Japanese expression Jugyou Kenkyuu, a combination of two Japanese words—Jugyou meaning instruction or lesson(s) and Kenkyuu meaning study or research. To bridge the gap between Jugyou Kenkyuu and Lesson Study and therefore maximize the potential of Lesson Study in the world, this edited volume provides two "mirrors" for those who wish to reflect on and implement Lesson Study within their own co...

Reforming Lesson Study in Japan

  • Publisher: Routledge

This book elucidates the formation and development of theories of action in school reforms for Schools as Learning Communities (SLC) during ten years from its inception in 1998 in select Japanese elementary schools, junior high schools, and one secondary school. While growing international interest in Japanese lesson study is in pursuit of a standard lesson study, Suzuki offers a unique perspective into school reforms for SLC and how they resisted the standardization of lesson study out of concerns that it would limit a teacher’s autonomous judgment and choice. Through a theory-of-action approach in its examination of the pilot schools for SLC, this book clarifies: • Why did teachers reform lesson study? • What were the difficulties in reforming lesson study? • Why were teachers working on school reform for SLC? • Why did the school reform for SLC evolve from an elementary school to the junior high schools and high schools? This book provides a theoretical foundation for reviewing the past efforts and histories of Japanese lesson study reforms, and will interest academics and practitioners looking for insights into the future of lesson study.

Didaktik in Modellen

Die Didaktik muss ihren Erkenntnisfortschritt über die Praxiswirksamkeit nachweisen. Die Erwartungen konzentrieren sich aktuell auf die messbare Beeinflussung der Unterrichtsqualität. Lehrbefähigung ist jedoch mehr als der Gebrauch von Methoden, die berechenbar zu gewünschten Ergebnissen führen. Guter Unterricht ist keine technische Errungenschaft, die in Serie gehen kann. Das Buch nimmt das an der Subjektivität der Akteure orientierte Grundmotiv der Didaktik in Anlehnung an Martin Wagenschein auf: das Verstehen zu lehren. Das wiederum verlangt, das Lehren selbst zu verstehen. In diesem Spannungsbogen werden ausgewählte didaktische Theorien in ihren Antworten auf der Suche nach der "richtigen" Lehrweise dargestellt.

Over the course of the period 1857 to 1937 in Japan, six distinct stages can be identified as the country moved from Shogun rule and its subsequent overthrow, from industrialisation and investment to the Meiji Constitution and then from Taishō democracy to Shōwa fascism. In this book, Junji Banno stresses the mutual relationships between each period, and to this end renames then accordingly: the age of reform; age of revolution; age of construction; age of management; age of reorganisation; and age of crisis. Following this model, the book covers eighty years of history in Japan, focusing on political history and foreign relations, with extensive material also on economic development and f...
