Muhtasari	Participatory Lesson Study is an iterative, team-based professional development approach in which teachers — and often students, parents, or community members — jointly plan, observe, and critically reflect on live lessons to improve learning for a specific group of students. It extends the Japanese lesson study tradition by explicitly broadening participation beyond the teaching team to include diverse stakeholders, foregrounding equity, inclusion, and community perspectives in the inquiry cycle.	Classroom observation is a field research method in which a trained observer systematically watches, documents, and analyzes teaching and learning events as they occur in a real classroom setting. It can be structured (using a predefined coding instrument such as Flanders Interaction Analysis or CLASS), semi-structured, or open-ended (ethnographic notes), and is used across educational research, teacher professional development, school evaluation, and curriculum studies to generate ecologically valid evidence about instructional practice.
