Excerpt
“Creating professional learning opportunities for teachers can be tricky—it’s amazing how quickly we can forget that all of those strategies we cherish in our classrooms (i.e., inquiry, reflection, choice, and dialogue) need to be present for adult learners as well. The process of lesson study has become, for us, an essential element in the landscape of professional learning, and it is particularly well-suited as a support for the mini-units.”
