Smile...well if you decide later you would like to practice on some  
more ASL video transcription, then sign up for the free course...At  
the moment we have one student signed up for each course (or Stefan  
did you say you want to participate too? then we have two...)...Of  
course we don't have to do any of this...it was just an idea to  
help...Movement transcription of a foreign signed language is also a  
fascinating experience that is not based on knowledge of the language  
you are transcribing...that is why we chose Japanese Sign Language in  
the previous course...because as the teacher I did not want students  
to influence their transcription by a prior knowledge of the  
language...so there are definitely different ways to transcribe and  
prior knowledge of the language is not necessarily important  
depending on how I shape the course.... Val ;-)
