ASL 123 Community Contact Hours
Goal: For you to get
out of the classroom and explore any avenue of interest related to Deaf people,
the Deaf community and the languages that they use to communicate with
themselves and/or the greater community.
You must earn up to 50 points in activities to receive full credit for this portion of the course.
Events and interaction = 10
points per hour
For each activity;
your typed report must
include the following:
***NOTE:
Videotapes and movies = 5 points per video / 1 page (with prior approval
from instructor)
Books/articles/literature = 5 points per 100 pages (with prior approval
from instructor). You will need a SCCC student ID card to be able to
take out a book from the ASL/ITP Lab for 4 days maximum.
Many books and publications
are also available in the SCCC library, the Seattle
Public Library, and the King County Library.
***NOTE: You CANNOT earn more than 20 points on any activity/book/movie. For
instance, staying at an deaf event for four hours will earn you a maximum of 20
points, NOT 40 points. See me if you have any questions.
Some suggestions for
Community Contact Activities:
Details for these and other activities are posted on ASL/ITP
Bulletin Board outside room 1129.
Observation and interaction of events primarily for deaf people:
***Interpreted events do NOT count, unless the
primary speakers is Deaf.
