ASL1020 — Introductory American Sign Language II
This course is based on the integration of learning outcomes across interpersonal, interpretive, and presentational modes of communication in the second course of the introductory American Sign Language course sequence. Students accomplish real-world communicative tasks in culturally appropriate ways as they gain familiarity with products, practices, and perspectives of American Deaf culture. Students learn grammar, vocabulary, structures, and spatial orientation to enable them to meet functional performance goals at this level and to build a foundation for continued language learning. During this course, students perform better and stronger in the novice range while some abilities emerge in the intermediate range.
Prerequisites: ASL1010
