Scholars and practitioners in the fields of education and
educational psychology have come to agree that conceptions of
learning and teaching, student and teacher motivation, engagement,
learning and teaching strategies, and by implication, student
academic achievement and teacher effectiveness are also influenced
by a sociocultural context where the schooling process takes place.
This raises the question if educational psychology theorising and
findings can be adopted to inform and guide teaching and learning
in different cultures. As such, there is a compelling and timely
need for educational psychology researchers to harness advanced
cross-cultural research designs and look at the different key
facets of student and teacher academic careers from a
cross-cultural perspective. Dennis McInerney is one of the key
pioneering figures in cross-cultural educational psychology and has
also edited a book series on Research on Sociocultural Influences
on Motivation and Learning (Information Age Publishing). His ideas
and research have inspired many to examine the role of
sociocultural context in motivation and learning. This volume is a
celebration of McInerney's numerous and extensive contributions as
a scholar, as well as an appreciation of his personal qualities
that make him such an inspiring person. In this festschrift, the
editors seek to extend the scholarly contributions of Dennis
McInerney by inviting internationally recognised and leading
educational psychology scholars who have inspired and been inspired
by his work to re-examine their research expertise from a
cross-cultural perspective. The volume aims to stimulate
researchers, scholars, and graduate students in their endeavour to
re-look their research from a cross-cultural lens.
