ASL 210 – Beginning Integrated Language and Culture, Dr. Jones

This semester, the unexpected transition to online classes obviously affected every course, but it was an especially challenging format for ASL 210. However, this gave me a more full appreciation for the importance of context and non-manual cues in ASL. This class also included discussions of Deaf culture, comparisons between formal ASL and more English-based derivatives, and the diversity of individuals who communicate using sign language. In my future role as a Speech-Language Pathologist, understanding sign language and its derivatives may beĀ useful in facilitating functional communication for individuals who are nonverbal. Here, the artifact I’ve included is a paper that outlines the differences between three common signing systems: ASL, PSE, and SEE.
