02/19/2013

Maia Van Beuren ’12 and Dr. Katrina Arndt, Associate Professor, Ralph C. Wilson, Jr. School of Education, recently co-authored a manuscript that will appear in the Journal of Literary & Cultural Disability Studies this spring.

The manuscript is entitled, “The Speed of Dark and This Alien Shore: Representations of Cognitive Difference.”

Van Beuren earned her master’s degree in math, science, and technology education at Fisher. Her research interests include how stereotypes impact gender and science education, and the relationship between these and students’ attitudes towards science.

The Journal of Literary & Cultural Disability Studies focuses on cultural, and especially literary, representations of disability.
