"Technical Sign Interview Series"
The Technical Sign Interviews compose a series of videotaped interviews where deaf
professionals discuss their occupations. The interviews are conducted by second-generation
native ASL users, designed to elicit the "deaf way" of describing complex
actions and jobs. These videotapes, each approximately 30 to 45 minutes long, are designed
for use by people who already have advanced ASL skills; no captions or voiceovers are
provided. They are not intended to be "vocabulary lists" but instead models of
how deaf people discuss technical information among themselves. Produced by the National
Center on Deafness (NCOD) / Western Region Outreach Center & Consortia (WROCC).

"You Don't Know What You've Been Missing! Alerting and Signaling Devices"#1075
A parent worries about being able to
hear the baby's cry, family members become concerned when a loved one doesn't
answer the phone, one's social life becomes constricted because the door goes
unanswered, co-workers worry when another worker doesn't notice alarms in the
building. We often think of hearing loss in terms of the issues that it creates
around being able to hear and understand speech. But our hearing also alerts us
to other events or dangers in our environments. In fact, many hard-of-hearing
persons complain of fatigue from constantly being on 'high alert.' This module
looks at a variety of assistive devices that help to convert sound to signals
that are accessible to persons who are hard of hearing, deaf, or deaf-blind.
