Abstract

Este articulo examina el desarrollo del Lesson Study en Malasia. El Lesson Study se introdujo en Malasia como estudios de investigación a pequeña escala a partir de 2004. Esto siguió a la participación del país en el Proyecto de Lesson Study del APEC HRDWG como parte de cooperación internacional. En 2011, el Lesson Study fue mejorado, reconceptualizado e incluido en el Professional Learning Community Project nacional (en espanol, Proyecto Comunitario de Aprendizaje Profesional nacional). Si bien los comentarios generales de estos eventos muestran el gran potencial del Lesson Study en curso como un enfoque de desarrollo profesional, también hubo una falta de confianza entre los maestros para implementar el Lesson Study por su cuenta. Este artículo discute las implicaciones de estos eventos desde el punto de vista de las necesidades de la comunidad profesional de educación matemática. El texto incluye sugerencias para revitalizar y sostener el Lesson Study en Malasia.
