6 Workshops Friday, April 27th Black Deaf Culture - Regina Daniels, MA There are multiple layers within the Black Deaf Community that make the language and culture that much more unique and complex. The pride that exists within the culture influences the norms within the community. In this workshop, we ll discuss the differences and purposes of body language, language used within the community, cultural and community norms, and things to consider while working as an interpreter or teacher. Working with Deaf+ Individuals - Paul Glaser, MSE, CDI This workshop will address the additional service needs of consumers (children & adults) who are deaf, hard of hearing, or deafblind, that also have a co-occurring disability. We will talk about vision loss, mental health, substance abuse, autism, and minimal language skills. During the workshop, participants will gain a working knowledge of the impact that these additional challenges place on the individuals, discuss various communication options, and consider how these challenges impact the role you re in.

7 Workshops Saturday, April 28th AM Mathematics in ASL - Paul Glaser, MSE, CDI Math is not an easy subject to master, however, the role of mathematics in the classroom and the standardization of the signs in ASL have become increasingly important, as the lack of continuity can have negative effects on learning. The issue is that most people don t have an in-depth understanding of math terms, and end up fingerspelling everything to avoid inventing new signs. This workshop will help prepare interpreters, teachers, and anyone wanting to familiarize themselves with math so they can apply it to their work. Incorporating Visual Gestural Communication Strategies in your Work - Sarah Houge, CDI Workshop will offer an overview of visual gestural communication and international sign, their purpose and appropriate use in a variety of settings. Best practices and strategies for using visual gestural communication and language will be discussed, as well as cultural implications of working with diverse individuals using gestures. Actual case studies will be shared with hands on practice to help participants feel more comfortable using visual gestural communication.

8 Workshops Saturday, April 28th PM Technology Signs in ASL - Paul Glaser, MSE, CDI The use of technology is increasing everyday and it plays an important role in teaching, interpreting, and learning. Many ASL users have different signs for technology terms, and it s possible that a lack of standardization may have a negative impact on learning. While people may know what the technology does, they don t have a sign for it and end up fingerspelling to avoid inventing new signs. This workshop will help familiarize yourself with technology terms in ASL and how to apply them to your work. English Intrusion: Let it Go! - Rania Bo Kyung Johnson, MA, M.Ed Ever realize you're working too hard as you're trying to convey a message in ASL? Do you ever think: how do Deaf people make it look so easy? We often forget that eyes, head nods, and facial expressions can relay so much without ever having to lift a finger. ASL is a three dimensional language, yet we rely so heavily on English, that we end up doing more work and getting less meaning. If this is something you struggle with, this workshop is for you!

9 Workshops Sunday, April 29th Sports in ASL: Give it Your Best Shot! - Brad Hardin, MA Lay-up, blitz, pitch hitter, and drop pass: do you know what any of these mean? Do you know how to convey these in ASL? If the answer is no, then this workshop is perfect for you. We will focus on four major sports in America: football, baseball, basketball, and hockey, and the vocabulary in English and ASL that go along with them. We ll also discuss rules, positions, team names, and different situations you may find yourself in when these concepts come up. Deaf Direct vs. Minnesota Nice - Regina Daniels, MA The Deaf Community in the United States has a tendency to be direct and factual about the information they share. This is in stark contrast to Minnesotans, who tend to be indirect and overly polite to protect another person s feelings. What happens when the two cultures conflict? In this workshop, we ll compare cultural, linguistic, and social norms within the deaf community, to that of the mainstream Minnesota culture. We ll also discuss how to culturally mediate overt, direct, and factually heavy language when voice interpreting into English.
