Recomendaciones

Ted Supalla’s Sign Language Science program is designed so that students from diverse backgrounds––signers and speakers alike––can profit from this extraordinary journey into visual-manual languages––their history, how they are structured, and how they are learned. The online curriculum presents in one, accessible place everything that is currently known about sign language, and teaches us how sign languages (like all languages) evolve over time to fit the human mind.

Susan Goldin-Meadow , Beardsley Ruml Distinguished Service Professor and Co-director of the Center for Gesture, Sign and Language, University of Chicago
