AMSL 202 Intermediate American Sign Language II
In this course, students will greatly advance their ability to apply American Sign Language skills - handshape, palm orientation, location, movement, and non-manual signals - in order to further refine and expand their ability to communicate at an intermediate level by exchanging, interpreting, and presenting information in complex structures and contexts; to further deepen the comparisons of the practices, perspectives, and products of Deaf culture to those of hearing culture; to connect ASL to other relevant disciplines and current topics; and to expand their use of ASL outside of the classroom in a variety of complex contexts. Content and supporting language structures and vocabulary will be theme-based, with outcomes measured in a variety of ways, including task-based activities that support effective communication around the theme.
