| ASL Itself! With Charles L. Harper |
| Are you educators, houseparents, children counselors, or facilities for the Deaf children who are looking for any new, positive ways and keys to approach for Deaf youths? Then I hope you will be able to participate to this special two-hours "ASL Itself" presentation someday in the future. Why did I entitled my workshops and lectures "ASL Itself"? No matter if you probably have a skill with American Sign Language (ASL) or/and a knowledge in Deaf culture to work with Deaf Children. Because you and I always need to remember that it is critical to plant a right structured teaching and learning opportunities aimed at developing the knowledge and leadership skills will prepare every youth to meet the challenges and opportunities ahead. This "ASL Itself" presentation (workshop) was originally targeted for interpreters to enhance the knowledge of professional interpreters regarding American Sign Language and Deaf Culture. Almost a decade of experience as a "ASL Itself" presenter, ASL has proven as a critical approach to everyday situations, especially for Deaf youths. Again, no matter if you or/and I have ASL skills, but guess what I've learned? All languages change. I realize this "ASL Itself" workshop should not be just for interpreters who are working in Deaf community; you are also working for Deaf children. This two-hour “ASL Itself” presentation brings the new capacity to think in more abstract and complex ways about ASL and Deaf culture for educators, houseparents, children counselors, or facilities for the Deaf children. American Sign Language should not be left behind while every Deaf child is characterized by significant growth, change and exploration. |
| From which I have been exposed from my native background and reputation as a presenter, and I am now bringing what I’ve learned to every part of this "ASL Itself" presentation. If you are wondering if a language is either ‘a barrier or a bridge,’ and then please visit this website again for any updates or /and contact your school administration for further information about this presentation. |
