Recommended: Achieving a goal

This year we all have goals but I want to accomplish many things in six months. My major goals for the following months are the following things: learn ASL, get my driving permit, start studying for test and quizzes, figure out my major, study for math class, and get a job. These six things I can accomplish by trying hard as well as start as soon as possible. I don't know what is going to happen in my life or where i'll be in six months, but I know I can control some things of what I will have accomplished by june.

The first goal I want to accomplish this year is learning the basics of American sign language. In order to complete this specific task, I can start by studying and learning from an online web site that is available. I can make a schedule of what time and days to do this. I can review the material and keep it fresh on my mind by talking with my deaf cousin. Another way is to get a touter or my cousin to teach me. I can dedicate my free time to learning sign language.

My second goal to complete in six months is to get my drivers permit. For this specific goal all I h...

    Although a handful of individuals were born knowing what they want to do in life, the vast majority spends a considerable segment of their life searching for that one perfect career they’re passionate about. Luckily, I am part of the latter group, and thus dedicated most of my adolescence and adulthood experimenting, engaging, and attempting different avenues toward discovering my labor of love. Indeed, every course I participated in provided me with a distinct skill-set or talent, while my journey helped shape me into a more consummate and multi-dimensional individual. However, the first avenue I explored was American Sign Language Interpreting, an expressive visual language that forced me to think innovatively and shape a multicultural perspective. Although the language as a whole fascinates...

    “Learning another language is not only learning different words for the same things, but learning another way to think about things” (American). For centuries, people from all walks of life have been using their hands to communicate with one another, and for centuries people from all walks of life have been learning. Today I am following in their footsteps with a passion from God for the deaf language, culture, and souls. For almost a decade, an intense ardor for American Sign Language and a desire to reach its native users for Christ seeded itself in my soul, wove its roots deeper and deeper, and blossomed into one of the greatest loves of my life. American Sign Language is a unique language with a rich history that not only provides a service to people in the deaf culture, but also to hearing people who seek to attain fluency.

    ...imination that goes on is to start raising awareness of the deaf community. There are some very easy things that you can do to learn about the deaf culture. One very easy way is to attend a deaf awareness event. Many amusement parks such as Paramount Kings Dominion in Virginia and Six Flags hold deaf awareness days. There are also many baseball teams that hold deaf awareness nights at the ballpark. Many schools, programs, and organizations for the deaf also hold annual deaf awareness events or festivals. These are some very easy ways to learn about the deaf culture and have fun at the same time. Another way is to join or volunteer to an organization. There are many deaf groups and organizations that are in need of volunteers to get involved and help with the deaf community. As I said before, we are lacking interpreters and people to interact with the Deaf and we can start to improve that area by having more people get involved and learn about the deaf community.

    In the U.S. the fourth most common language is American Sign Language. American Sign Language or ASL is a way of communication for those who are deaf or hard of hearing.

  • The Pros And Cons Of American Sign Language

    The form of communication they choose will affect the child for the rest of their life. One form of communication available to children who are deaf is American Sign Language. “Though many different sign languages exist, American Sign Language is considered the most widely used manual language in the United States” (Hardin, Blanchard, Kemmery, Appenzeller, & Parker, 2014) with approximately 250,000-500,000 users. However, it is difficult to place an exact number of American Sign Language users because of “methodological challenges related to how American Sign Language users are determined” (Mitchell, Young, Bachleda, & Karchmer, 2006). American Sign Language is a complex language in which its users use their hands along with facial expressions and body postures. For children who are deaf, early exposure to sign language is very beneficial for them, because the earlier a child is exposed to sign language, the better their communication skills will be. Research suggests that “the first few years of life are the most crucial to a child’s development of language skills, and even the early months of life can be important for establishing successful communication”

  • Summary Of Last Stop On Market Street

    To teach the Deaf student, I will use a visual method to sign the verbs because American Sign Language (ASL) does not include the verbs. The students can work together as a group to discover each other’s diverse backgrounds and how each of them learned to appreciate what they have rather than focusing on what they wanted. The groups of three can create a short, pantomime skit that demonstrates the definition of one of the mentioned verbs and share with their classmates. With my background in cinema production, I can use myself as a recorder of the students’ pantomime skits and post them on a class blog. Students can then remember the visual definitions and begin to use them in their sign language and written language. When the students understand the visual verbs, the students will enjoy reading more as they understand the concepts and apply the verbs in their conservation through sign
