Description

This 14-week course is a practical application of the skills learned in the program and allows students ample practice in preparation for SL 488. Students will work with their instructor and peers to interpret or transliterate both warm and cold stimuli. This work will be intensive as they practice their interpretation skills both American Sign Language (ASL) to English as well as English to ASL. After completing each assignment students will work in pairs to practice giving and receiving feedback like what they could expect from taking the professional benchmark exams. Additionally, students will work with their instructor to arrange and prepare for their final practicum placement.
