This course is designed to refine expressive and receptive American Sign Language (ASL) skills with dense message content. Students will enhance their knowledge of ASL linguistics through the study of semantics and language in context. Students will develop increased linguistic fluency and application of cultural knowledge in spontaneous discussions, formal discussions, and rehearsed presentations. Stress is placed on natural language use, conceptual clarity, accurate visual descriptions, advanced vocabulary development and proper language construction. Cultural sensitivity and awareness continue to be at the forefront of all discussions. Field assignments and language lab hours required.
