Event Details
When asked to interpret spoken/written literature into ASL, do you despair of ever being able to accomplish this task? This workshop will allow participants to look at bodies of text that are traditionally established in content, context, and tone, and the obstacles in translation that comes with these traditional views. This workshop will provide you with the tools to translate text into ASL without sacrificing content, and preserving the artistic and linguistic integrity of classic and contemporary authors.
Educational Objectives:
2) Translate given bodies of text into ASL parameters without strong reliance on only signed English vocabulary
3) To recognize and apply the integrity of the material provided while translating it into clear and concise visual information
4) Challenge traditional mental and linguistic obstacles in translating written/spoken literature, and similar works of literature.
