This book elucidates the formation and development of theories of action in school reforms for Schools as Learning Communities (SLC) during ten years from its inception in 1998 in select Japanese elementary schools, junior high schools, and one secondary school. While growing international interest in Japanese lesson study is in pursuit of a standard lesson study, Suzuki offers a unique perspective into school reforms for SLC and how they resisted the standardization of lesson study out of concerns that it would limit a teacher’s autonomous judgment and choice.Through a theory-of-action approach in its examination of the pilot schools for SLC, this book clarifies:• Why did teachers reform lesson study?• What were the difficulties in reforming lesson study?• Why were teachers working on school reform for SLC?• Why did the school reform for SLC evolve from an elementary school to the junior high schools and high schools?This book provides a theoretical foundation for reviewing the past efforts and histories of Japanese lesson study reforms, and will interest academics and practitioners looking for insights into the future of lesson study.Winner of the Seiichi Tejima Research Award (2023 Book Award) and the Academic Research Award by the Japan School Improvement Rescarch Association (2022).

This book examines the sustainability of school reform for Schools as Learning Communities (SLC), from the theoretical perspective of organizational learning of lesson study. Starting with a Japanese pilot school in 1998 and continuing on a global scale over the past quarter-century, school reform for SLC has been one of the most influential styles of school reform in modern times.Suzuki focuses on the difficulties of sustaining school reform which can prove even more difficult than initiating it. His book answers key questions around the sustainability of school reform and how organizational learning of lesson study can contribute to sustained school reform. This book, which analyzes the narrative teaching records of the global pilot school that challenged the sustainability of school reform, is based on the author’s more than 15 years of fieldwork and action research to the school and is distinctive in its adherence to an attitude of listening to the voices and learning from the practices of teachers in the school.It will be of interest to any researcher, practitioner, or postgraduate student looking at school reforms, lesson study and SLC.
