Abstract

Introduction This study aimed to identify the factors affecting the use of mathematics Lesson study and provide a desirable model for the ordinary elementary schools of Mazandaran Province. Lesson study is an approach for professional development where teachers collaborate to formulate lesson plans, implement them and observe and analyze their outcomes in order to improve students' learning. Method The research was conducted using a sequential exploratory mixed method. The research population included the experts of the field of Lesson study and all teachers of mathematics and principals of elementary schools in Mazandaran Province totaling 10700. In the qualitative section, 16 participants were selected through reputational case sampling and 370 participants were selected through simple random sampling in the quantitative section. The data collection tools were deep and exploratory interviews and a researcher-made questionnaire (containing 85 questions) extracted from the interviews. The data were analyzed through grounded theory method in the qualitative stage and exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis and Friedman test in the quantitative stage. Results The findings showed that the dimensions of Lesson study include human, structural, cultural, managerial and pedagogical aspects. Also, the results of Friedman's test showed that according to the respondents in this research, these factors were prioritized in the following order: pedagogical, cultural, structural, human and managerial aspect. Discussion According to the model presented in this research, which is the result of reviewing literature, performing specialized and profound interviews and conducting quantitative analysis, 5 factors and 28 indices play the major roles in the Lesson study model. The Lesson study is a professional development practice where teachers collaborate to prepare and implement a lesson plan, observe the lesson in order to collect data on students' learning and apply these observations to improve their lessons. Lesson study is a model for improving professional abilities of teachers, a practice for generating professional knowledge in school and an opportunity for teachers to improve their relationships with each other and with students. Among the features of the model presented in this research is providing a conceptual and theoretical framework for application of mathematics Lesson study on the one hand and describing the attributes and concepts related to Lesson study on the other, while indicating the steps towards implementation of Lesson study.
