Who We Are
About Section
My name is Louise Langenfeld, I'm 18 years old. I'm a student in MMI (Multimedia and Internet Professions). I'm interested in visual things and I've often wondered how memory works. This project let me discover the work of Mary Whiton Calkins and learn about the Matilda Effect. Through my website, I share the work of this woman who was very important but never got proper recognition. If you're interested in the Matilda Effect and women affected by it, my classmates' projects are available in the "Other Projects" section below.
This website is made for Mobile First. This means it works best on phones first. It must also be ecoindex A. This means this site must be very eco-friendly. MéMary is a site about memory. It also shows the work of a woman affected by the Matilda Effect. It will be in English to reach more people around the world.
