Lesson Study Conference 2003

Papers and Presentations

The papers and presentations from this conference offer continued learning and information for groups already engaged in lesson study. The papers seek to develop a more common understanding of lesson study, improve the evolution of thinking and learning of teachers during lesson study, and provide ideas for implementing and sustaining this professional development process.

Items are organized by category rather than the order in which the presentations occurred in the program. Please note: In instances where a paper was not available, RBS staff have posted the PowerPoint slides or drafted a presentation summary based on notes taken by Sonal Chokshi, Wendy Coffman, Lien Diaz, Barbrina Ertle, and Joyce Tugel during the conference.

These papers and presentations would not have been possible without the work of Wendy Coffman, Debra Gingerich, Tom Lorenz and Alison Rooney.
