Interpretive Sign Languages Mashup 'F**k You'
VIDEO: 'Fuck You' by Cee Lo. - Interpretive Sign Languages Mashup - One Song, Many Interpretations!
A variety people giving their personal interpretive performances are sign language interpretations of the song "Fuck You" by Cee Lo.This is "interpretive" so the hand signs don't match up between people but that also makes it interesting. Some are students and so might make a few mistakes but that doesn't really matter this video for purposes.
People who understand American Sign Language as to whether this video makes sense or if it is very confusing to follow... Put the videos together that they were all using different hand gestures. It'd find that confusing but then again there is something noteworthy about each signing the song in their own, personal, interpretive, fashion. Awesome isn't it?

This an excellent model of Deaf personal narratives that teachers can use to assist students in building background/world knowledge.
Personal narratives also provide opportunities for developing comprehension skills (retelling, questioning, making inference, summarizing, creating evaluative responses...)

Nigel Howard: Deaf Interpreters: The State of Inclusion
VIDEO [ASL] - Nigel Howard: Deaf Interpreters: The State of Inclusion. Nigel presented, Deaf Interpreters: The State of Inclusion, at StreetLeverage - Live.Nigel Howard talk explored some of the perceptions that challenge better integration of Deaf interpreters into the field and into daily practice. Most notably, the perception that ASL-English interpreters have that requesting to work with a deaf interpreter is an indication of an inferior skill-set.
Additionally, he highlighted that the definitions ASL-English and Deaf interpreters hold of each other, correct or not, is the basis of their effectiveness working together and that both have equal responsibility for the processing of information and outcome of the communication. Recorded by Street Leverage.
Deaf Interpreters: The State of Inclusion.
Douglas College Instructor Builds Bridges Between Deaf and Hearing Communities - For Nigel Howard, working at Douglas College is all about building bridges between the Deaf and hearing communities.
"I am the only Deaf instructor nationally who teaches courses about topics other than interpreters, sign language and Deaf culture," says Howard.
In addition to teaching for the Program of Sign Language Interpretation (INTR), Howard instructs classes on personal and professional development, wellness and community in other programs in the Faculty of Child, Family and Community Studies. While students are required to only use American Sign Language (ASL) in INTR classes, Howard lectures with an interpreter in his other courses.
"There's a pretty progressive attitude here at Douglas College," says Howard.
Howard, who has taught at the college for about 12 years, enjoys elements of both INTR and other courses.
"I get to see both cultures and languages working in this setting. The variety helps me become flexible. I see what's out there in the world in other programs and bring it back to INTR. You need to be skilled in both cultures and languages to move between them," says Howard.
INTR is "my contribution to the students and to the community. I give to them and they give back to the Deaf community," he says. ...READ MORE http://www.douglas.bc.ca/about/features/feature_story_archives/2008/douglas-college-instructor-builds-bridges-between-deaf-and-hearing-communities.html

Waitress Teaching Fellow Employees Sign Language
VIDEO [CC] - Local Waitress teaching fellow employees sign language for school project.
KDKA PITTSBURGH - “Hello, welcome to Kings. My name is Ashley. I’m your server. What can I get you to drink?”Waitress Ashley Carney uses sign language as she waits on Taylor Doyka. Taylor, Deaf since birth, appreciates the effort made on her behalf.
Her friend, Emily Gabriel, herself a part-time waitress at Kings in Delmont, taught fellow employees the art of sign language.
“Emily had everyone come back in the back and we all came in and learned a little bit of everything,” Ashley recalls. “She went through as much as she could, and then we tried to copy her.”
Emily is a junior, minoring in sign language, at Saint Francis University in Loretto. As part of a class project, she asked manager Jim Pochedly if she could teach sign language to a couple of waitresses.
“He was actually like, why don’t you teach everyone?” Emily says. “And it just kind of snowballed.” She’s thrilled by the response of fellow waitresses. ...Read more: http://pittsburgh.cbslocal.com/2013/03/28/local-waitress-teaching-fellow-employees-sign-language-for-school-project/

Structural Violence: Deaf Education Box
VIDEO [ASL] - Question: Why are our Deaf students across the nation underperforming in academics? We give them a wide array of 'communication options' - speech therapy, hearing-aids, cochlear implants, sim-com, cued speech, total communication, signed-exact-English/PSE interpreters, note-taking services - they don't need their American Sign Language with our "least restrictive environment."Answer: "One cannot expect positive results from an educational or political action program which fails to respect the particular view of the world held by the people. Such a program constitutes cultural invasion, good intentions notwithstanding."
― Paulo Freire, Pedagogy of the Oppressed.
Thought: We wanted to 'communicate' with our Deaf child in spoken English -- even if only slightly -- so we decided to forbid her use of sign language, even though it is the only natural, robust, and fully accessible language for a Deaf child.
Rebuttal: "Any situation in which some men prevent others from engaging in the process of inquiry is one of violence; ... to alienate humans from their own decision making is to change them into objects."
― Paulo Freire, Pedagogy of the Oppressed.
Question: What can I do? I'm just a teacher.
Answer: "The educator has the duty of not being neutral."
― Paulo Freire, We Make the Road by Walking: Conversations on Education and Social Change.
"Language For All" is a grassroots marketing campaign to help raise awareness and funds for the benefit of Texas School for the Deaf Foundation.
We, the people of Texas, are on the verge of failing a critical part of our community. State budget cuts are threatening access to language for Deaf children, and it is our shared responsibility to make sure they retain this fundamental right. Unite with the Texas School for the Deaf as we transform lives through our language and education services. Join us in our relentless crusade to fight for Language for All.

Deaf Entertainer Teaches Students With Comedy Act
VIDEO [ASL/CC] - Deaf entertainer teaches students with comedy act. Internationally renowned entertainer performs for Temecula ASL students.Decades ago, CJ Jones walked into a St. Louis, Mo., public school and was told he was not allowed to sign. The Temecula Valley High School students that the Deaf entertainer performed for Tuesday live in an entirely new and accepting world.
“It’s amazing to see the change,” Jones said through an interpreter. “It makes it a lot easier for Deaf kids to feel like, ‘Oh, I’m not alone. I’m not strange. I’m not different because I’m Deaf and everybody’s hearing.’
“If they see hearing people sign, they feel confident and empowered.”
For more than 30 years, Jones has been spreading that word through one-man shows like the one he delivered Tuesday for more than 200 American Sign Language students in Temecula Valley’s newly minted performing arts center.
Afterward, the school’s ASL club participated in a workshop a series of non-verbal acting, gesturing and miming exercises aimed at giving many of the students their first real opportunity to learn the nuances of sign language from a Deaf person who’s learned to live in a hearing world.
“He’s inspirational for anybody whether you know sign language or not,” ASL teacher Darcy Calas said. “A lot of these kids have never had exposure to a Deaf person. To see him here and interacting with hearing people, to see how he’s able to communicate with the hearing world, it’s something that we just can’t teach in a classroom. You can’t learn that from a book.” ...READ MORE: http://www.utsandiego.com/news/2013/mar/12/education-jones-asl-deaf-students/
