This comprehensive book delves into the formation and evolution of theories of action in school reforms for Schools as Learning Communities (SLC) over a span of ten years, beginning in 1998 in select Japanese elementary schools, junior high schools, and one secondary school. While there is a growing global interest in Japanese lesson study, Suzuki offers a distinctive perspective on these school reforms and their resistance to standardization, driven by concerns that it would limit teachers' autonomous judgment and choice.
Through a theory-of-action approach, this book sheds light on several key aspects:
Why did teachers initiate the reform of lesson study?
What were the challenges encountered during the reform process?
What motivated teachers to engage in school reform for SLC?
How did the school reform for SLC progress from elementary schools to junior high schools and high schools?
This book serves as a valuable theoretical foundation for examining past efforts and histories of Japanese lesson study reforms, offering insights to academics and practitioners seeking to understand the future of this educational practice. Notably, it has received prestigious awards, including the Seiichi Tejima Research Award (2023 Book Award) and the Academic Research Award by the Japan School Improvement Rescarch Association (2022).
