The study followed a qualitative data analysis methodology along with a comparative investigation strategy. Japan has a culture of unique systems of professional development like a mentoring system, on-site and offsite training for novice teachers as well as different professional development activities for mid-career and veteran teachers. The \u2018lesson study\u2019 concept originated and helped in improving science teacher\u2019s professional development in Japan. Both China and Japan have implemented several laws and reforms regarding their professional development in a significant way and now these two countries are the forerunner of innovative professional development systems among high achieving countries in PISA tests. The success stories of effective science teaching in China and Japan have been reflected in international science competitions like the Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) and the Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS). Many studies in Indian provinces identified the lack of professional competencies and the deficit of proper science teaching skills of science teachers. No comparative study has been found between India, China and Japan for science teachers\u2019 professional development at the secondary level to date which reflects the originality of the study.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Keywords:<\/strong> Science Teaching Practices, Science Teaching Skills, Professional Development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-vivid-red-color has-text-color\"><strong>Page No: 39-63<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-ast-global-color-6-background-color has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/bijmrd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/39-63.pdf\">download journal<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Author: Ajoy Ghosh &amp; Surapati Pramanik DOI Link: https:\/\/doi.org\/10.70798\/Bijmrd\/03070005 Abstract: The purpose of the investigation is to study and compare some distinctive characteristics of science teachers\u2019 professional development approaches and practices at the secondary level in India, China and Japan.
