Resources

Deaf Literacy Initiative strives to develop classroom resources for literacy practitioners who work with Deaf and Deafblind adult learners. Our resources capitalize on emerging technologies that allow us to incorporate American Sign Language (ASL) into every resource. Below are examples of two such resources developed at Deaf Literacy Initiative.

Deaf Literacy Skills for the Workforce and Workplace: Learners' Workbooks and Practitioners' Guide (2008 publication)

Practitioner Recognition: Phase II (ISBN 0-9680514-5-6)
Cheryl Wilson, 2002

Practitioner Recognition: Phase II is a text and CD-Rom package that outlines in both ASL and English a core skills list for the literacy practitioner working with Deaf and Deafblind learners. The publication is useful for agencies hiring instructors or looking to improve on their professional development and training practices. This full package resource is available for sale at a cost of $25.
