American Sign Language - Intermediate I

All-Genders Course; Prerequisite - Successful completion of at least two years of high school ASL; Full-year course
COURSE DESCRIPTION
At the intermediate level, students further their exploration into the Deaf World by learning more vocabulary, including the in-depth use of classifiers. Students learn how to communicate about food and daily items, how to plan a trip or things to do, and how to converse about difficult subjects such as health and medical issues or accidents and tragedies. Finally, students delve deeper into the application of the vocabulary for story-telling as they continue their education into more aspects of deaf culture.

WHAT STUDENTS DO
Learning is an active process at One Schoolhouse. Students design, create and apply. And, they engage with classmates and connect with their teachers through discussions, video conferences, and projects. Specifically, in this class students will:
  • Set goals that drive their learning. Students reflect regularly on their growth, and meet on video chat with their online teacher to review progress towards their goals.
  • Have choice in how they learn new content and practice new skills. Students are given agency to determine the best ways for them to learn.
  • Apply what they are learning to the real world. Learning is meaningful and connects to concepts outside the classroom.
  • Practice constructive engagement in a diverse and changing world. Students interact with classmates from across the country and around the world.
  • Gain academic maturity. Online learning takes greater discipline and independence than a traditional face-to-face classroom. Teachers support students to build this skill.
SIGNATURE ACTIVITIES
Examples of signature activities and projects for this course are:
  • Translation of videos with native signers.
  • Projects in which students will be required to record themselves explaining content relative to the unit. 
Assessments - Multiple choice with GIFs (so students can see the sign).
COURSE APPROVAL
This course is approved by the NCAA.

​One Schoolhouse is fully accredited with the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools and the Western Association of Schools and Colleges through December 1, 2025; we are an approved online publisher for the University of California.
