ASL Training and Evaluation
 TPD
offers a variety of services in order to support ASL skill development
among teachers, staff, and families, specifically:
- Technical assistance for national mission projects
- ASL skills classes for teachers, staff, and families
- ASL coaching
- ASL "chatrooms" for teaching teams and units at the Clerc
Center
- Individual tutoring
- Videotape lab for ASL skill development
A strength of the program is its emphasis on working with people in their
actual communication situations. For example, the ASL coordinator and
trainer in TPD work with teachers and staff as they develop presentations,
helping them practice and refine their ASL use during the delivery of
the presentations. The TPD staff also work with teachers directly in the
classroom, and assist them in conveying content information clearly.
