Dissertation on autism and Asperger's in the media

Post Reply New Topic

Hello everyone,

I am new here and I have nearly finished writing my university dissertation about how people with autism and Asperger syndrome are portrayed in media forms such as film, animation and television. So far I have received other people's views on the majority of my case studies and I would like you all to give me your opinions on the following case studies:

A Is For Autism


The Suskind Family

I would particularly like you to say if you think the are positive or negative representations of people with autism and say how you think people with autism should be represented. If you could give me your views by next Monday 13th April, that would be great since the deadline is next Wednesday 15th April. I will be referring you by your usernames in the dissertation.

Thank you and good luck.
