Welcome to HandsUP!!
I am an interpreting student in my senior year at GSU. I wanted to create a website that will help current interpreting students navigate in the world of interpreting just a little by providing resources to help with interpreting students skills or to just help them get involved in the Deaf Community in GA. Thank you for visiting my blog. Feel free to look around, and if there’s any resources on particular topics (fingerspelling, NIC, classifiers, etc.) you would like me to post, please contact me!
Remember to keep those HANDS UP!! Practice makes perfect!
Practice Makes Perfect. Happy Deaf Awareness Month. All throughout the month I will be posting on issues impacting the Deaf Community by people inside the Deaf Community.
Today’s Expressive Practice is interesting. The video I chose for today’s practice is Drisana Levitzke-Gray. Drisana Levitzke-Gray is the recipient of the 2015 Young Australian of the Year Award in recognition of her passion and dedication in advocating for the human rights of deaf people, raising awareness about Auslan (Australian Sign Language), and the rights of deaf children in Australia to access Auslan from birth. Now She’s getting to be signing in Auslan with a voice intepreter, it’ll be interesting to see the interpretation from Auslan to English to ASL.
Today’s Receptive Practice is Peter C. Hauser, the Director of the Deaf Studies Laboratory (DSL) in the Department of American Sign Language and Interpreting Education at the National Technical Institute for the Deaf at Rochester Institute of Technology. He’s going to discuss Audism and Linguisticism.
Hi!! I know it’s sometimes hard to keep up your skills aside from getting involved in the community. That’s why I decided to start a segment called “Today’s Practice”. It will be two videos, one expressive and one receptive/voicing, for you to practice on to keep up your skills. I will try to post every Tuesday and Thursday for the time being. Hopefully, when school is over, I can post more regularly. Remember to record your videos so you can review them for a later time, and get those hands in the air! As my teacher once said, “If you’re thinking about it, you’re fantasizing!” Let’s make that fantasy into a reality. Some may be challenging, they are optional and you can go at your own pace.
Happy Signing
