Table 1 Overview of the conduct of Lesson Study in designing one research study

From: Enhancing mathematics teachers’ quality through Lesson Study

Lesson Study stage

Specific activity

Cycle 1

 Session 1

  Planning a RL

Selected teaching topics

Selected teaching class and teacher implementer of RL

Identified specific mathematics content and competencies to be taught

Formulated teaching objectives

Determined prerequisites knowledge and skills

Decided and planned for appropriate teaching strategy to be employed.

Designed students’ classroom activity

Prepared learning materials

 Session 2

  Conducting the RL

Teacher 1 (T1) implemented RL in the class

Other teachers and KO observed the RL implementation in class

Video recording of the class

 Session 3

  Post-lesson discussion

Reviewed the class implementation of RL through the video recorded

Discussed the result of the observation

  Reflection and revision of RL

Analyzed results of the post-discussion and reflected on the conducted RL and activity implemented in class

Revised RL

Cycle 2

 Session 4

  Planning for implementation of the revised RL

Planned revised RL integrating significant points noted for revision

 Session 5

  Conducting revised RL

Teacher 2 (T2) implemented RL in the class

Other teachers and KO observed the RL implementation in class

Video recording of the class

 Session 6

  Post-lesson discussion

Reviewed the class implementation of RL through the video recorded

Discussed the result of the observation

  Reflection and revision of RL

Analyzed results of the post-discussion and reflected on the conducted RL and activity implemented in class

Revised RL for refinement
