ABSTRACT

This chapter discusses a case conference and a joint reflection on an observed lesson. This part is the most important in the process of Lesson Study for Learning Community (LSLC) because it is most directly related to the learning of participants. Self-reflection can be about the aims of the observed lesson, general or specific situations of daily teaching, issues or breakthroughs in the observed lesson or difficulty or joy about researching into the topic, units or tools. In some cases, self-reflection can be given simultaneously with viewing a video record of the lesson. One should avoid imposing ideas, especially appealing to 'political' voices and maximising on them without listening to observed teachers or other peers. In listening to different varieties of findings, facts or views, you will broaden your horizons to capture realities, to interpret and analyse them and to learn from them.
