American Sign Language for Teens
Ever wish you could talk with your mouth full? Interested in learning a beautiful, unique, 3-D language? Do you have a deaf neighbor, classmate, relative or friend? If so, learn American Sign Language (ASL) through fun and interactive activities. Students learn how to communicate in ASL at an informal level. Instruction is primarily conducted through sign language. Games, gestures, pictures, videos, articles and props are used to introduce students to ASL and Deaf culture. The class is taught by Emily LeGros who currently teaches ASL at OSU and Upper Arlington High School. She has more than 14 years experience signing.
