Changing teaching, changing teachers: 21st century teaching and learning through lesson and learning study

Abstract

This book is a recent addition to the World Association of Lesson Studies (WALS)–Routledge Lesson Study book series and a great contribution to the growing lesson and learning studies scholarship. The book is designed for educational researchers, teacher educators, lesson study facilitators and coaches, and teachers. The book proves to be an important resource for all stakeholders that aim to engage in transformative practices (Mezirow, 1997) through lesson and learning studies. Relatedly, the book is based on a large-scale research project on 21st Century Teaching and Learning (21CTL) in Brunei, and how lesson study acted as a catalyst of change for teachers who gained insight into their own experience of (professional) learning as well as that of their students.
