    WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION:

    This session will be geared towards teaching the intermediate to advanced parts of classifiers/NMS in American Sign Language. Participants will learn how to incorporate them while doing educational interpreting work. The presentations are designed to refine expressive and receptive ASL skills with complex and dense message content. Emphasis is placed upon natural language use in dialogues and monologues, concept clarity, and accurate visual description.

     

    LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

  • Analyze ASL narratives for advanced linguistic features
  • Apply features of advanced ASL narratives to narratives, discourse, and argument presentation
  • Integrate adjectival mouth morphemes with sign adjectives
  •  Demonstrate use of degrees in intensifiers
  • Identify and narrate using onomatopoeia-type morphemes to represent sounds and visual noises

This workshop is for American Sign Language interpreters and will be presented in ASL.

FAQ

What is the dress code? 

The dress code is Black-tie! Tuxedos and floor-length gowns! Don’t be afraid to wear COLOR or PATTERN- this is a night OFF! 

Can I bring my partner who doesn’t know ASL? 

YES. Please bring a plus-one to celebrate the evening with you! We plan for the night to be accessible to all. There will be lots of interpreters around if needed ;). 

What are we celebrating? 

YOU! Our organization has hit a milestone- 50 years; that’s half a century! We could not have made it without our members, who are also our leadership, our committee chairs, the people who read the emails we send out, the people who’ve kept the wheels turning all these years! 

Can a non-FRID member buy tickets?

Only FRID members can purchase tickets as this is a members-only event; but we do not expect your Plus-One to be a FRID member. 

Will there be dancing? 

Yes! We will have a D.J. Dancing and eating are basically the entire agenda. 

Will there be CEUs? 

NO! This is not a workshop. While networking is bound to happen with a room full of niche professionals, this night is about FUN. See last question ;). 

What should I bring? 

I.D. will be needed for check-in and cash/card for purchasing any alcoholic drinks from the cash bars.



For any necessary accommodation requests, please email pdc@fridcentral.org at least 14 days before the start time of the event.
