If you don't have access to this journal through your institution, let me know and I'll send you a pdf. <br>I am still planning to collect more data - I'd eventually like to write a book about SignWriting.<br>
Do you use SSW when you teach ASL? I'd love to hear more about your work.<br>Best,<br>Erika<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Jul 25, 2011 at 5:22 PM, Kimberly Berger <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:kberger71@gmail.com">kberger71@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

Are you still collecting data? Have you published the results of your study? Where can I find more information? I teach ASL Linguistics at a local community college within an interpreter program. In addition to an introduction to Sign Writing, I would like to share the latest with your literacy project.<br>
