17. Unit 517 “Places Around Campus” MASL DVD Pointing to people is a basic feature of American Sign Language. Just as a signer points to a person who may or may not be present, signers can point to a location whether it is seen or not. If the location is visible, simply point directly towards the area. Modify the point to reflect the actual path someone would take to arrive at the location. Depending on how the point is made, you can sign directions like over there, around the corner, or that way. Look at the way pointing is used in the “Places Around Campus” dialogue.

60. Unit 560 Interpreting Federal law requires equal access to information and services for all people, regardless of disability. For both hearing and Deaf people, sign language interpreters are a popular way to obtain equal access to each other. Have you seen interpreters at public events, on television, or at your school or workplace? Interpreters are required to sign what is heard, and to voice what is signed so everybody has access to the information and services provided. While the majority of interpreters are hearing, don’t be surprised if you encounter a Deaf interpreter! When using an interpreter, remember these tips: Talk directly to the Deaf person instead of saying “Ask him” or “Tell her.” Make eye contact with the Deaf person, not the interpreter.
