4. Aug. 2022 · This past summer, I set out on a mission with the Center for History of Physics (CHP) and Niels Bohr Library & Archives (NBLA) to highlight two particular underrepresented female voices in physics: Katherine Clerk Maxwell and Émilie du Châtelet. Though both impressive women share the same fate of being remembered most because of ...
As an intern, I was tasked with choosing teaching guide topics (I chose Émilie du Châtelet and Katherine Clerk Maxwell), performing extensive research on the women, and creating teaching guides for an age group of my choice about them (I chose grades K-2).
