  • A Study Guide by Marguerite O Lhara
    A STUDY GUIDE BY MArguerite o ’hARA http://www.metromagazine.com.au http://www.theeducationshop.com.au Introduction > Mary and Max is an animated feature film from the creators of the Academy Award-winning short animation Harvie Krumpet (Adam Elliot, 2003). This is Adam Elliot’s first full-length feature film. LikeHarvie , it is an animated film with claymation characters. However, unlike many animated feature films, it is minimal in its use of colour and the action does not revolve around kooky creatures with human voices and super skills. Mary and Max is about the lives of two people who become pen pals, from opposite sides of the world. Like Harvie Krumpet, Mary and Max is innocent but not naive, as it takes us on a journey that explores friendship and autism as well as taxidermy, psychiatry, alcoholism, where babies come from, obesity, kleptomania, sexual difference, trust, copulating dogs, religious difference, agoraphobia and much more.

  • Autism and Aspergers in Popular Australian Cinema Post-2000 | Ellis | Disability Studies Quarterly
    Autism and Aspergers in Popular Australian Cinema Post-2000 | Ellis | Disability Studies Quarterly Autism & Aspergers In Popular Australian Cinema Post 2000 Reviewed By Katie Ellis, Murdoch University, E-Mail: [email protected] Australian Cinema is known for its tendency to feature bizarre and extraordinary characters that exist on the margins of mainstream society (O'Regan 1996, 261). While several theorists have noted the prevalence of disability within this national cinema (Ellis 2008; Duncan, Goggin & Newell 2005; Ferrier 2001), an investigation of characters that have autism is largely absent. Although characters may have displayed autistic tendencies or perpetuated misinformed media representations of this condition, it was unusual for Australian films to outright label a character as having autism until recent years. Somersault, The Black Balloon, and Mary & Max are three recent Australian films that explicitly introduce characters with autism or Asperger syndrome. Of the three, the last two depict autism with sensitivity, neither exploiting it for the purposes of the main character's development nor turning it into a spectacle of compensatory super ability. The Black Balloon, in particular, demonstrates the importance of the intentions of the filmmaker in including disability among notions of a diverse Australian community. Somersault. Red Carpet Productions. Directed By Cate Shortland 2004 Australia Using minor characters with disabilities to provide the audience with more insight into the main characters is a common narrative tool in Australian cinema (Ellis 2008, 57). Film is a visual medium that adopts visual methods of storytelling, and impairment has become a part of film language, as another variable of meaning within the shot.

  • The Autism Spectrum Information Booklet
    The Autism Spectrum Information Booklet A GUIDE FOR VICTORIAN FAMILIES Contents What is Autism? 2 How is Autism Diagnosed? 4 Acronyms and Glossary 6 Common Questions and Answers 7 What does Amaze do? 11 Funding and Service Options 12 Helpful Websites 14 National Disability Insurance Scheme 16 Suggested Reading 18 This booklet has been compiled by Amaze to provide basic information about autism from a number of perspectives. It is a starting point for people with a recent diagnosis, parents/carers of a newly diagnosed child or adult, agencies, professionals and students learning about the autism spectrum for the first time. Once you have read this information package, contact Amaze if you have any other questions or you require more information. 1 What is Autism? Autism is a neurodevelopmental condition that causes substantial impairments in social interaction and communication and is characterised by restrictive and repetitive behaviours and interests. People on the autism spectrum may be affected in the following ways: Social Interaction IN CHILDREN IN CHILDREN May display indifference Does not play with other children Joins in only if adult assists & insists People on the autism spectrum may not appear to be interested in joining in with others, or they may want to join in but not know how. Their attempts to respond to social contact may appear repetitive or odd. Alternatively, they may be ‘too social’, such as showing affection to strangers. In general, people on the autism spectrum often have poor social skills and difficulty understanding unwritten social rules. They often lack understanding of acceptable social behaviour.

    Mongrel Media Presents A Film by Adam Elliot (92 min., Australia, 2009) Distribution Publicity Bonne Smith 1028 Queen Street West Star PR Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M6J 1H6 Tel: 416-488-4436 Tel: 416-516-9775 Fax: 416-516-0651 Fax: 416-488-8438 E-mail: [email protected] E-mail: [email protected] www.mongrelmedia.com High res stills may be downloaded from http://www.mongrelmedia.com/press.html Synopsis The opening night selection of the 2009 Sundance Film Festival and in competition at the 2009 Berlin Generation 14plus, MARY AND MAX is a clayography feature film from Academy Award® winning writer/director Adam Elliot and producer Melanie Coombs, featuring the voice talents of Toni Collette, Phillip Seymour Hoffman, Barry Humphries and Eric Bana. Spanning 20 years and 2 continents, MARY AND MAX tells of a pen-pal relationship between two very different people: Mary Dinkle (Collette), a chubby, lonely 8-year-old living in the suburbs of Melbourne, Australia; and Max Horovitz (Hoffman), a severely obese, 44-year-old Jewish man with Asperger’s Syndrome living in the chaos of New York City. As MARY AND MAX chronicles Mary’s trip from adolescence to adulthood, and Max’s passage from middle to old age, it explores a bond that survives much more than the average friendship’s ups-and-downs. Like Elliot and Coombs’ Oscar® winning animated short HARVIE KRUMPET, MARY AND MAX is both hilarious and poignant as it takes us on a journey that explores friendship, autism, taxidermy, psychiatry, alcoholism, where babies come from, obesity, kleptomania, sexual differences, trust, copulating dogs, religious differences, agoraphobia and many more of life’s surprises.

Include short statement addressing how this course meets the FSEM’s basic components and new student learning outcomes (see FSEM call above). This course is the most-taught FSEM in the history of UMW; I have offered 23 different sections of the course since its debut in Spring 2008, including the four most recent sections (two in Spring 2014 and two in Fall 2014) that already incorporate the new student learning outcomes into the course (see the COURSE GOALS/LEARNING OUTCOMES portion of the syllabus). The basic components of a FSEM at UMW have remained the same since the inception of the program, so these have been incorporated into all 23 sections previously taught (see the first paragraph of the COURSE DESCRIPTION portion of the syllabus). This course also features multiple meaningful assignments where both writing and speaking are concerned (see the COURSE ASSIGNMENTS portion of the syllabus). Finally, this course already has incorporated two of the new Canvas modules (CA and CRAAP) into its syllabus/calendar. Please let me know if you have any questions or need any further information.

  • Has Portrayal of Disabled People in the Media
    BROADSHEET : MOVING IMAGE PORTRAYAL OF DISABILITY: THEN AND NOW! Has portrayal of disabled people in the media improved in recent years? There are more story lines about disabled characters with more subtlety and less stereotyping in television and film. Television-Carrie Mathieson (bi-polar)in Homeland played by Claire Danes; Tony Soprano (James Gandolfini ) keeps his mental health anxiety issues going through 7 series of the Sopranos; Monk, the detective with OCPD, brings his unique thinking to solve crimes, Doc Martin, played by Martin Clunes, with OCD has proved very popular, as the audience engage with his difficulty in navigating the world. There has been a welcome casting of disabled actors to play disabled characters in soaps, and long running dramas. This builds on the pioneering retaining of Roger Tonge as Sandy Richardson when he developed Hodgkin’s used crutches and a wheelchair in Crossroads ( ATV 1964-1981) and Julie Fernandez (wheelchair user) in Eldorado (BBC 1981-82); Adam Best in the BBC’s Eastenders (David Proud 2009-2010) followed by Donna Yates (Lisa Hammond) of short stature and wheelchair user, 2014 onwards. Kitty Mc Geever (blind) played Lizzie Lakely in Emmerdale (ITV from 2009-2013). In Hollyoaks Kelly Marie Stewart (wheelchair user) played Haley Ramsey. More recently, wheelchair using Cherylee Houston plays Izzy Anstey in Coronation Street. Liz Carr plays Clarrisa Mullery in Silent Witness. American long running series have cast more disabled actors portraying disabled parts, Paula Sage (learning difficulties) plays Roberta Brogan in Afterlife; Peter Drinklage ( restricted growth) plays Tyrone in Game of Thrones; R J Mitte (cerebral palsy) plays Walt Junior in Breaking Bad.

However, research concerning friendship understanding among autistic Friendship understanding people is scarce. The existing literature is limited mostly to children and often disregards gender Gender differences differences. Thus, the current study aimed to examine friendship understanding in adolescents Adolescents and adults whilst taking into account both autism diagnosis and gender. Adults Method: The current study was a secondary analysis of data obtained in the Polish Autism Survey. Participants were 76 autistic individuals (44 males, ages 14 37 years) and 76 matched controls. Qualitative responses to an open-ended question concerning friendship understanding were coded into six non-exclusive categories, including motivational (intimacy, support, and companionship) and cognitive-developmental (reciprocity, unconditional responsiveness, and complexity) aspects of friendship. Chi-squared tests and Mann-Whitney U were used to examine group (autistic vs. typically developing) and gender differences in friendship understanding. Results: Autistic people referred to intimacy and unconditional responsiveness less often and also provided less complex definitions of a ‘friend’ than their typically developing peers.
