Hey, my name is Kayla.  I'm from the Rochester, NY where there is a high Deaf/HoH populations thanks to the presence of NTID at RIT.  I recently got a job there and would like to improve upon the skills that I learned a couple of years back.  I made it through three classes, but it has been a while since I've had anybody to practice with. Let me know if you'd like to practice conversational skills!

Kayla, I would be interested in practicing. I am from LaVista Nebraska so our times are a little off, but we can send correspondense back and forth.  let me know if your interested or if you have already found someone. I am not sure if there is a way to message one another, but I am sure we can figure something out.

Sure, what is the time difference for us? I am available at multiple points during the day, so I feel we could work it out. I'm not sure about guidelines for this site but if it allows you, you can email me at [email protected]. Thanks!

I am sorry I have not gotten back to you. We had three surgeries this month and all of them were bunched together. I sent a small video hoping you can understand it. My time here in Nebraska is Central Standard time. I can facetime through messagner or we can send messages back and forth. 

If we do it this way, I think it might be best to write out what the other person signed. Send it back with the decoded message and put in a new message. Does that make sense?

Let me know I'll watch my email for you

So sorry for the delayed response. I am acting as the maid of honor in my best friend's wedding this summer and it has taken over my life! 

Ok, here's what i got from your post.

"Hi, my name is Linda. I am married. I work and live in West Grand Rapids? Goodbye!"

Let me know if I missed anything...I am rusty.

      ASL Research: Signing Participants Needed for Online Study

      By annaboyer · Posted

      Hi everyone! I am a graduate student at the University of California, Davis. I'm desperately looking for individuals who use ASL--especially interpreters--for a pilot study for my dissertation. If you have a spare moment, I would like to invite you to take this completely online research survey. Your contribution to this research will help neuroscientists learn more about how sign language is processed in the brain for those who use both a spoken and signed language. This research has been approved by the UC Davis IRB board. Below is some more information, and the link to the study: --- Study of Sign Language Processing:  What is the purpose of this study? By evaluating participant responses to this short, online experiment, we can get a better understanding of the neural mechanisms that are used to support sign language processing in the brain. Who can participate? We encourage anyone (even hearing parents or individuals who use ASL consistently) from anywhere in the US to participate. Eligible participants meet the following criteria: ·       Between 18-50 years of age. ·       Normal cognitive function. ·       Consistent use of American Sign Language. ·       Have normal or corrected-to-normal vision. ·       High school competency (9th grade) in reading English What does participation look like? This experiment is an approximately 20-minute online study, which should be taken on a laptop or computer. You will be presented with a consent form, a short background questionnaire, and then a decision task. You will see videos of a deaf person signing, then you will press a key on the keyboard in response. Here is the link to the study: https://research.sc/participant/login/dynamic/DFB825B2-1571-4380-9CBD-D666D51DAAB9 Additional Project Information: This study was approved by the University of California, Davis IRB (an ethics board) [2402245-1] Your information will be kept confidential and in a secure database. If you have any questions, please contact Anna Boyer at [email protected] or 330-357-1277.
