Welcome to Hayes' ASL Home Page! 

 

Thursday, April 26:
For ASL 101 and 102 Classes only:
If you prefer not using Screencast for uploading your 5 Min Video for any reason, you can upload your video to EH server. At EH site, go to any computer that is able to connect to the server (any computer in the school).  This can not be done outside of EH school site.  Click on finder, and then click on EH1.  After that, you will need to sign onto the server (if you need help, ask Ron in the Vet Lab).  Click on the file that is titled ASL_101 or ASL_102.  Then drag your video into the file and then number the video so Barbara knows which video to watch.

Tues, March 20:
For 101 and 102 Students:
Screencast.com:  you can set up a password to make it privacy and only between you and me.

Thurs, March 15:
ALERT to ASL 101 and 102 students:  I just got the word from Screencast.com saying they are having the hardware failure, and their uploads are currently disabled for the time being.  So if you haven't send me your 5 minutes video, you can send it to me with Utube URL or any other way you know how.  You can also try your school server.  Thanks and you all have a great weekend! Barbara

Tuesday, January 3rd:
Happy New Year to you all!  Hope you all had a restful and wonderful holiday break!  See you today on Tuesday!

Thursday, Dec. 15:
Today is the last day before the two week Winter / Holiday Break, and I am home sick :(  Not a great way to miss today's classes!

I wanted to say I truly enjoyed having you all in classes.  I am blessed and grateful having you, the motivated, eager and hard-working students learning this amazing, visual language, ASL!

In order to keep up your signing skills, please continue your 50 minutes weekly and turn them in on Thursday, Jan. 5th.  This is a sure way to maintain your signing skills.  If you can do more than 50 min a week, that is even better!

And as for you the ASL 101 students, we will do your Expressive Skills video work on Tuesday, Jan. 3rd.

And for those who are working on "Credits", please continue working on your credits during the break.

You all have a wonderful, safe and restful winter / holiday break!

See you next year, on the 3rd!
Barbara Hayes,
ASL Teacher
