Abstract

This paper addresses how the peer reviewing system (FD Commons) was used as an analytical tool to identify key principles and criteria for assessment of teaching and learning. In evaluation studies, four faculty members in Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology (TUAT) took part in the 6-month study as reviewers and conducted three evaluation studies to gain a broad understanding of how reviewers identified and recorded the educational events during "lesson study." Data were collected using qualitative and quantitative methods. From the results, the following three points were proved: (1) the faculty developer wrote more comments concerning methodology than lecture content, (2) the reviewer in specialized area suggested how to teach the contents more effectively than faculty developer, (3) the lecturer accepted the comments for class improvement from reviewers in 'lesson study' after class observation.
