ASL 2001 - American Sign Language III


Credits: 3

Building on American Sign Language (ASL) II, this course covers more complex ASL grammatical features and vocabulary, short stories, narratives, and dialogues. Students recognize the difference between present, past and future events in a range of signed material that includes familiar language in less familiar contexts. Students learn the application of complex sentence structures with appropriate non-manual markers (facial morphemes/grammar), classifiers, timeline referents (tense markers, temporal aspect) and the grammar used to convey sequence of events. Students whom have completed ASL courses at locations other than Northwestern Campus of CT State Community College must be evaluated before registering for this course.
