Improving Teaching through Analysis of Lesson Videos

DESCRIPTION

This document explores how analyzing lesson videos can improve teaching practices. Grounded in evidence from TIMSS Video studies, it emphasizes the importance of focusing on the teaching process rather than solely on teacher development. Key findings reveal that teaching is culturally embedded and challenging to change. Effective approaches include utilizing structured routines, fostering collaborative environments, and applying disciplined planning and analysis methods. Additionally, technology can facilitate these improvements by providing tools for planning and knowledge sharing among educators.

  1. Archived Information Improving Teaching through Analysis of Lesson Videos Jim Stigler LessonLab & UCLA

  2. Background • Classroom as final common pathway • TIMSS Video: why study “average” teaching? • Key findings from TIMSS video: • Teaching is cultural, hard to change • Reforms rarely penetrate into the classroom • Programs can make teachers more knowledgeable, but not improve teaching and learning in classroom

  3. Approach to Improving Teaching • Focus on teaching more than teachers (direct improvement in classroom, motivated by problems of practice) • Use methods that are known to change culture: Use daily routine of teaching as lever for change (plan, teach, assess, analyze) • Give teachers opportunities to work together • slow down cycle of teaching • Learn tools for disciplined planning and analysis (rubric’s for work of teaching important) • develop knowledge in context of use

  4. Example: Science • Problem in science: activities become ends in themselves, often not used as vehicles for developing scientific concepts • In two LessonLab studies (Kathy Roth), using TIMSS video analysis protocol’s as tools teachers can use to analyze their own lessons: making visible the science in science teaching

  5. Video Example

  6. Conclusion • Technology can be a powerful tool for • Creating more time for this kind of work • Teaching teachers how to plan and analyze • Providing knowledge: alternative examples, analysis frameworks, etc.
