Expanded Course Description
ASL 201 continues applied conversational use of ASL through literature, narratives, poetry and plays. This course satisfies the UO group requirement in Arts and Letters. Completion of this sequence (ASL 203) is one means of satisfying the UO BA language requirement. This course will develop the students’ overall understanding of language through analysis of ASL semantic and grammatical principles combined with Deaf cultural experiences designed to explore various underlying metaphors found in ASL literature. This ASL course will challenge students to probe deeper structures of both ASL and English. ASL 201 will build upon previously learned linguistic components related to people, places and things in the immediate tangible environment leading to the development of abilities in communicating more abstract thoughts and environments in national hearing, Deaf, hard of hearing communities as well as international Deaf communities.

Deaf empowerment and rhetoric are explored through discussion, readings and guest speakers prominent in the field of the emergence and struggles of the Deaf civil rights movement. Weekly lab and readings require Deaf community exposure and involvement.
