Welcome Message from Conference Co-Chairpersons

   

From November 29th to December 2nd, the World Association of Lesson Studies (WALS) International Conference was to take place in Macau SAR, China and Hong Kong SAR, China. As a result of the pandemic, this amazing conference will now be online. We are working closely with the zone teams to bring you a fantastic online conference with world class keynote speakers, Learning Studies from Hong Kong SAR, China and Macau SAR, China and programmes in our three time zones featuring practice, research and lesson and learning studies from around the world. The world has seen a revolution in the development and use of online lesson study since WALS 2020 and we will see innovative examples. The theme of the conference is "Revisiting Lesson and Learning Studies: Accessibility, Quality, and Sustainability”. We invite teachers, administrators, researchers and community leaders from all around the world to take part in this conference. Together, we will deepen our understanding and implementation of Lesson and Learning Studies. We are extending our submission date for contributions to 13 August 2021 because we know more people will wish to do so online and we have also lowered the conference price so everyone gets the former student discount. Please register here for the conference which includes: a year’s membership of WALS; access to all WALS 2021 and 2020 sessions; the International Journal of Lesson and Learning Studies; all WALS Webinars; WALS PhD network and of course the WALS community.As you may know, WALS was founded at Hong Kong SAR, China after two international conferences on classroom-based learning and lesson studies. The first International Conference of WALS was held in 2007 at The Hong Kong Institute of Education (The university was retitled as “The Education University of Hong Kong” in 2016) in Hong Kong SAR. Since then, Lesson Study and Learning Study have been increasingly popular and have been widespread all over the world. With the contributions from academics, education practitioners, and frontline teachers around the globe, WALS Conferences have been held successfully for fourteen consecutive years. With your strong and unfailing support, we believe that WALS Association and WALS Conference will be continuously contributing to the new knowledge generation of practice-based classroom teaching and learning.

It is our great pleasure to announce that WALS 2021 will be held in Macau and Hong Kong. The Main Conference will take place at City University of Macau, Macau SAR, from 29 November to 1 December 2021, and a Learning Study Immersion Programme at the Education University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong SAR, on 2-3 December 2021. WALS Conference this year will be co-organised by the two sister cities, Macau and Hong Kong. The main theme for the WALS 2021 Conference is “Revisiting Lesson and Learning Studies: Accessibility, Quality, and Sustainability”.As it is hard to predict the pandemic situation in the later part of the year, WALS2021 will be organized in a blended mode. That is, both onsite and online. For the onsite part, there will be social events including conference dinner and cultural activities, such as school visits, city tours, and immersion programme. You are cordially invited to join WALS 2021. Participants will have a chance to take a glimpse of both cities in one go. Please visit the conference website regularly to keep updated about the detailed programme arrangement.
