I decided to open the material up to the world for free since there are many parents of Deaf children who NEED to learn how to sign but may live too far from a traditional classroom. I designed this communication-focused curriculum for my own in-person college ASL classes and put it online to make it easy for my students to access. It is my goal to deliver a convenient, enjoyable, learning experience that goes beyond the basics and empowers you via a scientifically engineered approach and modern methodologies that save you time & effort while providing maximum results. It will also allow you to communicate with your baby many months earlier than the typical non-signing parent! Learning to sign even improves your brain!

Thus, going through the lessons sequentially starting with lesson 1 allows you to reach communicative competence in sign language very quickly-and it is based on second language acquisition research (mixed with a couple decades of real world ASL teaching experience). Then I took the concepts that appeared the most frequently and translated those concepts into their equivalent ASL counterparts and included them in the lessons moving from most frequently used to less frequently used. I compiled lists of concepts from concordance research based on a language database (corpus) of hundreds of thousands of language samples.

The main series of lessons in the ASL University Curriculum are based on research I did into what are the most common concepts used in everyday communication. If you actually have time to read this email can you answer a question.We need a bigger list of signs, would you recommend me going through the lessons or are you working on a 'more signs' page of maybe 100 to 200 of the most commonly used signs?. ' and pull up the bookmark of your web page. We constantly go through the 'What's the sign for. We have a vocabulary of 124 signs (most of what are on the 100 signs page).
