Hi, Sign Writer

[CWren at DOE.K12.GA.US]

Deaf education is, except for a rare few, a failure.  Deaf kids with fully 
normal intelligence are graduating High School with 3rd grade reading 
levels.  I don't know where the quote is from, but "if you always do what 
you've always done, you will always get what you always got".Or was it 
Einstein's definition of insanity--  doing the same think over and over 
and expecting different results--  That is to say, if nothing changes, and 
we continue the same methods as we use now, nothing will change. And that 
is unacceptable.   Based on some of the research I've done, I think 
SignWriting may be one piece of the puzzle to solve this problem.  In 
order for SW to have a place in Deaf Education, there needs to be stuff 
written in it.  I just keep plugging away to make my contribution....

[sw-l] Hi, Sign Writer






Hi Cherie,
 
  Nice to see a real interpreter interested in Sign Writing. That tells me 
something more is going on with your perspectives on Deaf Education?
