Summer ASL Courses

ASLN 1101
Elementary American Sign Language I, Level 1.
No Prerequisite. 4 Credits.
The first level of American Sign Language is an introduction to the study of ASL and Deaf culture. We stress an emphasis on receptive and expressive skills through student-teacher interaction.

ASLN 1102
Elementary American Sign Language II, Level 2.
Prerequisite: ASLN 1101. 4 Credits.
The second level of ASL continues where 1101 leaves off. The course further develops ASL receptive and expressive skills and has a core focus on ASL grammar and structure.

ASLN 1103
Intermediate American Sign Language I, Level 3.
Prerequisite: ASLN 1102. 4 Credits.
The third level of ASL is a more advanced course in the study of American Sign Language. This class continues with an interactive approach; developing sign, improving expressive and receptive skills, while gaining more awareness of the Deaf community.

ASLN 1104
Intermediate American Sign Language II, Level 4.
Prerequisite: ASLN 1103. 4 Credits.
The fourth ASL course is a more intensive approach to the study of ASL skills, grammar and structure. The primary goal with this course is for students to achieve a level of competency in ASL.
