SIGN 1

This is the first course in a series of four courses in the fundamentals of American Sign Language (ASL) used by the Deaf community, including basic vocabulary, syntax, numbers, fingerspelling, and grammatical non-manual markers. The instructional activites are based on an immersion approach, in which the students develop language competency in source and target language, cultural knowledge, and an increased understanding of the Deaf community. Students are expected to participate in Deaf community events. Instructional materials will be in English.

​

Students may also co-enroll in SIGN 61 (Fingerspelling and Numbers 1) in a CE course for additional support, if desired.
