9 About the authors Dr Richard Walker Richard Walker is an Associate Professor in the Faculty ofeducation and Social Work at the University of Sydney. He teaches educational psychology at both postgraduate and undergraduate levels and has published a number of articles and book chapters on various aspects oflearning and motivation. Richard has for some time been interested in applying aspects of sociocultural theories, which have their origins in the work of the Russian psychologist Lev Vygotsky, to issues of learning and motivation. He became interested in the topic of homework through an involvement in after-school homework centres for Polynesian students which had been established by Mike Horsley. Richard and Mike started to develop a sociocultural approach to homework in an earlier publication, but collaboration on this book has allowed them to develop these ideas further. Dr Mike Horsley Mike Horsley is the Director of the Learning Teaching Education Research Centre at Central Queensland University. He is the Vice President of the International Association for Research on Textbooks and Educational Media (IARTEM) and is the lead editor of the IARTEM e:journal. He has written and published widely on research into teaching and learning materials, the learning needs of Pacific Islander students and homework. For almost a decade Mike co-managed Pacific Islander learning and homework centres in western and south-western Sydney, and has advised many schools, teachers and students about the areas ofhomework and teaching and learning materials. Managing after-school homework centres, often three nights a week, helped Mike and Richard conduct research on homework and refine the sociocultural approach to homework and learning that is presented in Riforming Homework. xiii
