The purpose of this paper is to clarify the systematization process of the teacher training system led by the Okinawa Teachers Association in the 1950s as the germination term.
For this purpose, this study consists of analysis reports, memoirs and the Journal of the Conference on Educational Research in 1950s' Okinawa.
The findings of this study are as follows:
Firstly, in Okinawa, systematization of in-school teacher training was driven by the Conference on Educational Research in 1954. And it became clear that the systematization was composed of 3 steps — equipping the research organization at each school, stating research policy and dispersing results—. In that process, each school's practice was shared throughout Okinawa. In addition, the way of systematization emphasized the autonomy of each teacher, school and district.
Secondly, in each district as of 1954, there remained diversity in the names, methods and contents of in-school teacher training. Therefore, building systems of in-school teacher training at that time encouraged research activities to adapt to each community's circumstances.
As described above, in 1950s' Okinawa, teacher training at each school was composed to work with the Conference on Educational Research. So, it is clear that the conference's policy affected in-school teacher training directly.
