Description

Reading with variable meeting hours) The Honours Research Paper allows a student, in consultation with a faculty member, to pursue an area of interest that has emerged in their program of study. The course is taught on an individual arrangement between Supervisor and student. A Reader, with relevant expertise, also evaluates the final version. When scheduling permits, the student presents results at the annual WGS/DIS Colloquium. Topics may include an exploration of a film, novel, television or online show in its representations of ability and disability or evaluations of particular practical strategies and tactics like separation and mainstreaming for persons living with disabilities.
