American Sign Language 1

Catalog description

The intent of this course is to provide the student with a basic understanding of American Sign Language — the form of sign language most commonly used by deaf adults when communicating with each other. This course will be taught in American Sign Language with some additional use of written English rather than spoken English. Five hours of participation in Deaf community events are required outside of class time. Students enrolled in programs other than Interpreter Technician may be able to use this course and INTP-127 to satisfy elective requirements.
