Course Description
This is an advanced ASL course in which students expand their conversational
and narrative range. While receptive readiness activities continue to be an
important part of the class, the emphasis moves toward honing expressive sign
skills through narrative presentation and ASL-only class discussions. Various
aspects of Deaf culture and cultural behavior rules will be incorporated into
the course. A large component of the course is a unit on Deaf history in
which students read and discuss major events and famous deaf people via
readings, film, class lectures and discussions, and other outside resources.
