• Lesson Study as research on educationCreating new knowledge of educational research
- “Japanese Style Lesson Study” has been emphasized basically and objectively on practical research.
- Lesson Study has raised teachers qualification not only for practitioner but as practical researcher.
- After 10 years of foundation of WALS Lesson Study academic researchers may be encouraged to connect practical research with theoretical research and raise research perspective on LS to higher level.
