lesson study
|
Hello I'm a science support teacher for TPS and we complete NSF observation for teachers who participate in the TAPESTRIES program. This may sound silly, but inorder for a lesson study or NSF observation to be benificial the teacher needs to be able to reflect on their teaching. I've found many teachers who have a hard time being reflective. The key to improving teaching is the ability to look back and say That didn't go so well. What can I do different to improve? If teachers can't do that themselves then I'm sure they don't want to hear it from someone else. It would be great if they could see themselves on video and and reflect on their own teaching. Perhaps it could be a first step and create a comfort zone. Reflection need to be taught.
