There are many publications that have been produced in the last quarter of a century related to Deaf Culture and American Sign Language. Most of these texts are college-level readings that our students find challenging. The content is often overwhelming and it leaves our students frustrated.
Deaf Is... is a great website that provides simple introductions to aspects of Deaf Culture that you can expand upon in your classroom discussions. This would be a great website to include in a webquest project. It offers instruction on diverse aspects of Deaf Culture and ASL. The material is straightforward and easy to understand. This is an especially great resource for students in your classroom who are second-language learners because it also contains several pictures that correspond with each discussion.
What are other websites that can be used as Online Textbooks in your ASL Classroom?
