experienced well educated teachers who have been trained in American Sign Language and the deaf community can give barriers which might prevent the program from following through with inclusive experiences for the deaf community. The berries can be lack of materials that can the put up in the classroom for visual aids. I have found some good ones for the classroom for free on teacher pay teacher website. They are labels the show the sign and a picture of what…

During our Second Language Acquisition lecture, Professor Becker mentioned that American Sign Language was completely different than the English language. Although this makes complete sense to me now, I had never thought about this fact before that class. She also mentioned the concern of the high rate of illiteracy in the deaf community…

After reading the article “Do Deaf People Have a Disability?” by Harlan Lane with my peers very throughly and understanding the concept of the article I have educated myself even more since I read this article. Before I even took sign language I didn’t even think about the deaf community, much less if they were being oppressed or not. I never thought that they were oppressed for being Deaf something which isn’t wrong, just like your race (racism) and your gender (sexism). I believe that the word…

the ASL classroom in Founders Hall, at the University of North Florida (UNF). The class is not only one of my favorites, but it has truly shaped the culture of my life. The class focuses on Deaf culture and the budding popularity of learning American Sign Language (ASL) as the main form of communication with deaf people. When hearing people as a whole learn to interact with not only Deaf culture, but deaf people in ways other than note passing and overly expressed speaking, hoping that the deaf…

classes on this campus was American Sign Language. I didn’t know exactly was I was getting in to but it opened my eyes to the fact that there is this entire world that lives alone side the hearing world that we just ignore. I think the most astounding thing I’ve ever experience happened about a week after I started taking classes in American Sign Language. It was about 5 in the morning and I was sitting at the bus stop reading a book about the history of Sign…

my passion for English and love for helping people. Obviously my career is a very specific one, and it sparks many questions. My interest in American Sign Language started when I was in the second grade. My teenage brother, at the time, had unsuccessfully been taking an American Sign Language class which led me to stumbling upon an American Sign Language dictionary. Unable to understand many of its words, but to interest to stop trying, my mother went out and bought me my own dictionary for…

On April 8, American Sign Language (ASL) 1 went to Bakersfield College to watch “I See the Crowd Roar”. “I See the Crowd Roar” is a movie about William “Dummy” Hoy, who was a Deaf baseball player in the late 1800s. William Hoy, was born on May 23, 1862, but he was not born Deaf, he became Deaf when he was around three years old due to meningitis; from that, he lost his hearing. Baseball was starting to pick up as a common past time and thus as a young boy, William wanted to learn and play just…

Throughout this semester it was required to learn another language and I had chosen American Sign Language, also known as, ASL. It was incredibly frustrating and rewarding all at the same time. I learned and relearned a lot, not only about the actual language but what it takes and the process of learning another language, and about myself. I did not do anything related to American Sign Language over spring break. That was my biggest mistake, I had forgotten so much, and needed a refresher…

One of the obvious differences is Deaf and hearing cultures is the way language is used. Deaf culture use, of course ASL as their language. A visual gestural language with its own grammar structure. American sign language is not an auditory, written language or universal language. And doesn 't go by the english structure hearing people go by. Eye contact is a must for Deaf people because most Deaf people can’t use their ears to hear things and need vision…
