This open access book is intended to assist teachers, teacher trainers, curriculum designers, editors and authors of textbooks in developing strategies to teach the multiplication of natural numbers based on the experience of the Lesson Study in Japan. This approach to mathematics education dates back to the 1870s and reconciles the emphasis on problem solving with the treatment of the curricular contents. It has gained international recognition since the 1990s and thanks to it mathematics education in Japan has been recognized as one of the most efficient and innovative in the world.
This growing international awareness has led to an effort to apply the principles of Lesson Study to other parts of the world and this book shows how experienced authors from Brazil, Chile, Mexico, Spain and Portugal have worked to adapt some of these methods and techniques to the Portuguese and Spanish speaking countries of Ibero-America.Drawing on the impact of Lesson Studyon government curriculum decisions and teacher behavior in Japanese classrooms; offering examples of lessons, lesson plans and suggestions for teaching; and presenting examples of the good reception of the principles of Lesson Study in Ibero-America, Teaching Multiplication with Lesson Study ? Japanese and Ibero-American Theories for Mathematics Education shows how an efficient and cutting-edge experience in mathematics education can travel the world and help teachers in many different countries.

?Teaching Multiplication with Lesson Study: Japanese and Ibero-American Theories for International Mathematics Education can be recommended to mathematics teachers all around the world regardless of the curriculum and textbooks used in each country. This book offers the reader the opportunity to have a wider perspective in the teaching and learning of mathematics. This book has many strengths and provides teachers with several new ideas for teaching multiplication which can assist them in designing meaningful learning and learning methods.?

?This book offers valuable insights about teaching multiplication and about lesson study. ? I highly recommend this book as an excellent resource for those involved with teaching multiplication or teaching elementary teachers. It provides compelling justification for the importance of using proper and consistent terminology, understanding the definitions of multiplication, posing open-ended tasks, and having an insightful questioning strategy.?
