A. Rationale

The dynamic of life always influences the process of life

itself. All things related to life will be influenced by how

individuals think in living their lives. In the context of life,

mathematics is a subject of learning that will never be

separated. Therefore, mathematics learning needs to be

developed in line with the evolving context of life. In

addition, the futuristic concept needs to be considered so

that the learning experience gained can be used as a

provision for the life of the students of his day.

Various innovations in the context of learning continue to

be developed in line with the dynamics of the developing

paradigm. One of the many innovations developed is

lesson study. Lesson study is one of the many educational

innovations that are developed in the series of learning

processes carried out. Development of learning through

lesson study is an effort made so that the learning process

can be carried out through a progressive dynamic process.

The series is step by step simple but brings many benefits

and in the end creates a real effort in improving the

learning process through a series that refers to lesson study.

The development of lesson study is carried out through 3

simple steps, namely: (1) plan; (2) do; (3) see. The planning

context is carried out through a series of activities carried

out through the development of the learning plan that will

be carried out. In addition, various considerations need to

2
be made regarding the context and material concepts that

students will learn. The teacher also needs to think about a

series of optimal learning steps so that the achievement of

competencies that are expected to be achieved in full,

holistic, and comprehensive. The stage "do" is the stage

where the teacher implements learning as planned in the

previous stage. At this stage, a teacher implements learning

and is observed by all the teams incorporated in lesson

study. Observer may not interfere with ongoing learning,

the existence of observers can be assumed as a subject that

is not seen in learning. The last stage is "see" at this stage,

the practice of all observers observing and photographing

the ongoing learning sequence. After the learning takes

place, all observers and teachers gather in one room to

discuss the learning that has been done.

All elements provide input based on a series of learning

that has been done. In the end, the teacher will try to

improve and optimize the learning done at the next

meeting. in the end, the teacher can create innovative,

creative and comprehensive learning.

The result of the implementation in attending the course

held by the SEAMEO Regional Centre for QITEP in

Mathematics is expected to have a positive impact not only

to the participant representing the country/school but also

to the institution/school where the participant works, and

to the teachers who are willing to be involved in small

3
 working groups for lesson study. Therefore, I propose this

sharing session to disseminate knowledge and skills I have

learnt.

B. Objectives

The objectives of this action plan are to:

1. Improve knowledge and skills of the participants of

lesson study especially in mathematics education in

primary school;

2. Promote sustainable professional development for

teachers and education personnel in the area of any

subject particularly in mathematics in primary school;

3. Provide intellectual forums for policy makers and

experts in the field of mathematics; and

4. Establish networks and partnerships at the national,

regional, and international levels;

5. Making lesson study as one of the main alternatives in

the development of teacher professionalism in primary

schools.

C. Expected Outcomes

At the end of implementation this action plan, the targets

should be able to:

1. apply innovative learning through approaches and

learning strategies that are affiliated with students and

4
 competencies developed in primary school’s learning

processes

2. design a lesson study based on mathematics teaching

materials (for teacher alumni)

3. create mathematics teaching model applying lesson

study in their class (for teacher alumni)

4. increase students’ learning in learning mathematics (for

students inprimary school)

5. increase students’ mathematics learning achievement by

using the lesson study approach (for students in

primary school)

6. understand the meaning of lesson study in mathematics

education (for primary schools teacher colleagues)

7. increase mathematics teacher’s in primary school ability

in arranging lesson study approach (for teacher

colleagues)

8. provide support in the form of guidance to alumni (for

the head of institution or stakeholders)
