Making BSL Visual with Gavin Lilley

Friday, 23 June 2023

10:00 am  4:00 pm

Suitable for those who have passed Level 3 and higher.

Attending this workshop will award 6 CPD points.

Summary

This one-day workshop will encourage participants to break away from the English structure and, instead, consider how to fully convey phrases and sentences with a stronger visual element. This workshop is appropriate for those who work with individuals or groups who may not have strong skills in the English language. Tips on how to reduce ‘English thinking’ will be given throughout the workshop, alongside a number of tasks that will be challenging and thought-provoking.

We will mainly look at the use of Aspect, Manner and Mood and how to utilise these elements of BSL grammar to maximum potential. The artistic world of metaphors, personification and visual vernacular will be discussed and analysed in order to give participants a wider range of tools to supplement their visual use of BSL

Learning Objectives

• Be able to understand what makes BSL visual.

• Understand and apply Aspects, Manner and Mood effectively.

• Gain insight and strategies on how to avoid English influence in BSL.

• Utilise visual vernacular, personification and metaphors in BSL.

    • Hi I am Vicky.  I decided to do the introduction to sign language course mainly as learning a new skill that may be useful in the future. However I also work in education as a teacher so it may be useful if I ever work with students with hearing impairments.
    • I have started this course to help learn the basic signs and conversation gestures, expressions and cues to help me with a future venture in teaching BSL. I currently teach in a primary school and have a sign teacher that comes in each week to teach my class. It has always been something I have been passionate/interested in and I have decided to just go for it to help me daily with my 2 little boys and also to use in my classroom.
