Abstract
This contributed paper will explore the collaboration between an undergraduate library instruction program and an English as a Second Language (ESL)
program using the methodology Lesson Study. Well-suited to observing the
accessibility and effectiveness of library instruction for international students
from a variety of different language backgrounds and English proficiency levels, this paper will examine the history of Lesson Study and its use in the
Western educational context through a review of the literature, provide a
Lesson Study framework rooted in the literature and adopted to an academic
library instructional context, and report data from the first of two rounds of
implementing the methodology
