The study aims to develop students’ higher cognitive skills e.g. analysis, synthesis and assessment and to increase their academic successes by reflecting their cognitive skills in psychomotor skills in practice with the help of lesson study. Therefore, the aim of the study is to increase students’ English as a foreign language learning level. Action research was used in the study. “English Achievement Test” and “Semi-Structured Interview Form” developed by the researchers were used as data collection instruments. English achievement test was used as pre-test and post-test to define students’ English language levels, and semi-structured interview form was used to determine teachers’ views about lesson study practice. According to research result, lesson study has increased students’ learning levels significantly. Moreover, teachers stated that lesson study was highly beneficial and affected their professional development in a positive way. It was stated by teachers in the study that lesson study had the teachers a chance to observe and assess their teaching qualities and so, it made the students’ learning levels increase significantly. Furthermore, all of the teachers agreed that lesson study as an in-service training model could be an approach used for both other lessons and nationally.
The aim of the study was to test the effect of teachers' professional development upon students' mathematics academic achievement levels with the help of lesson study. In this manner, the study aimed at increasing students' mathematics learning levels via lesson study. Action research was used as research method in the study. The sample of the study was consisted of 32 6 th -grade students who were studying at the school having lower academic success. Four different learning outcomes about "natural numbers activities" were tried to develop in the process of implementation of the study. The achievement test called as "the achievement test about natural numbers activities" was used as data collection instrument which was developed by the researchers. According to the findings of the study, there was significant difference between academic successes of the students. Lesson study is designed to support students' learning by choosing a lesson, a subject and an aim. According to the study's findings and results, it was seen that the lesson plan, research lesson, new teaching strategies and materials, which were prepared with different views altogether, made the students' learning levels and qualities increase and also develop reasoning.
