Planning a lesson in lesson study: The role of the facilitator
Résumé
Lesson study is a collaborative professional development process focused on student learning. This process requires skilled facilitation, yet research on the facilitator's role is limited. This qualitative research aims to characterize the facilitator’s role during the lesson planning phase by analysing the facilitator’s actions in two lesson studies carried out in Portugal. Data collection includes field notes, audio recordings, and document collection. The results highlight the importance of careful preparation by the facilitator of the lesson study sessions, drawing on teachers’ experiences and selecting appropriate resources to address their concerns, such as encouraging discussions on task design to foster student learning. Anticipating and being receptive to teachers' ideas, allowing them to intervene and build knowledge collaboratively, and adjusting the planning were also considered crucial.
