WG: Looking for other teachers who teach bilingual documents to Deaf students

[MARIA GALEA]

Hi Guido,
Thanks for your email - we use SignWriting in Malta but not 'everyday'
with students as Andre called it. We have produced some long written
bilingual texts at the Institute of Linguistics, University of Malta with
Dr Marie Alexander.

I would love to give you a copy of my thesis...the only trouble is that
I'm still far from completion. I hope to be ready this time next year, but
it may be a little longer than that.

I look forward to learning more about DELEGS. I will be including
information about this and the people involved in the dissertation also.

best wishes,
maria
