Description
This course is for the ASL enthusiast who has some knowledge of basic sign language, but it is not required. This course is perfect for beginners who want a review and move beyond the beginner level. The lessons will start with some ASL basics and incrementally increase in complexity.This course gives you a 'being in a classroom' laidback feel to it, where there are two instructors. One instructor is leading the lesson as the teacher and the other is participating as the student. Lessons and corresponding activities/games encourage you to participate at home. It provides you with an online immersion (of sorts) of the language with some specific grammar lessons.To build your receptive skills, there is no voiceover or captioning in one video of each lesson. Prior to the lesson, a preview of the vocabulary with visuals, print, pictures, and/or voiceover is presented, to prepare you for the lesson. The second video of the same lesson will give you the captioning and/or voiceover.American Sign Language has its own grammatical structure and syntax. This course offers lessons in ASL, not in a signed English structure. Pay attention to facial expressions as you learn the vocabulary and sentence structure. It is a part of the grammatical syntax.Geographical locations determine sign choices, (different signs for the same word may be dependent on where you live).This course consists of lessons that focus on developing the ASL sentence structures while increasing your vocabulary and receptive skills. There will be an opportunity for you to practice. Spatial relationship building activities are incorporated.Classifiers in ASL are representations of the noun which will incorporate the other parts of the sentence, i.e., verbs, adverbs, quantifiers, etc., within the movements and facial expressions.
