"If you are seeking a more effective way to improve teaching and learning for your students or innovative ways to help teachers become actively involved in their professional career, you will enjoy opening the door to lesson study."
—From the Foreword by Akihiko Takahashi
Employ one of the most promising strategies for linking professional development and student achievement—lesson study!
Educators have been examining the Japanese lesson study model for years, but the dissimilar environment in U.S. schools has prevented a widescale adoption of this effective form of professional learning.
Lesson Study Communities demonstrates how to translate each step of the Japanese lesson study process to the educational environment of U.S. schools.

Addressing the challenge of changing student demographics, this book includes guidance on assessing readiness for lesson study, planning the research lesson, gathering data, modifying the lesson, and sharing findings.
Staff developers, teachers, and administrators committed to increasing student achievement will find this to be a significant stride toward ensuring academic success.
