[Sw-l] SW math problem solving

[Stefan Wöhrmann]

Hi Valerie, 

 

thanks for your message ... well we will discuss your advice within our team
and I will answer as soon as possible. 

 

Once you are familiar with the procedure how to create a document, to save
as it as PDF and to work with the Editor within the delegs-programm you will
understand that this is the tool I would not want to miss anymore working
with deaf students. 

 

The attached documents are just a few examples that my give insight of how
to use SignWriting documents within Maths. 

 

 

Hi André , ...attached you find another document – which I really like. 

 

The theme is: calculating the area of a rectangle.

 

Hopefully you can understand without any Spoken Language comments ... of
course you can!  The little pantomime signs are simply apects to motivate my
students. 

 

All best 

 

Stefan

This is so exciting, Stefan!

 

Congratulations and we will use DELEGS and it deserves users


 

I need to figure out how to start the program quickly - without much spoken
language.

 

Is there a visual user-interface that does not require the knowledge of any
spoken language, that could help me get to the program and let me start
using it?

 

If I go to:

 

http://www.delegs.com

 

and I click on the button:

 

delegs-Editor

 

I see instruction but not the actual program I can use myself.

 

Sooo
.I click on Delegs International instead, and I get English, but that
is not the button to simply start using the program


 

Where is the button to use the program?

 

It should be right there on the front page - and very large and visual and
pretty and appealing to the eye in some way -

 

I know it is hard because we are still struggling to make software
user-friendly, but it is necessary - and you and Andre helped me the other
day to realize I had not organized our flags properly at the bottom of
SignPuddle pages - we are continually learning what works for users - and
feedback is always necessary.

 

So I envision one clear button - Use DELEGS EDITOR - and then a bunch of
flags for the choice of languages - and then start typing -

 

It is an outstanding program and deserves to be used by the world!

 

Thank you for this gift - 

 

Val ;-)

Hi André amd SW-list members, 

 

The next easy to understand step would be to practice reading SignWriting
with 

 

Basic arithmetic operations
Three plus four is seven
Nine minus three is six
three times two is six
eight divided by four two

 

I attached an example with different numbers. I bet it can be read without
any problem ..because all of you know already so much about the math problem
;-) 

 

 

The delegs Editor allows you to copy and paste words ..all you have to do as
the teacher is to take care of the adequate option  how to sign this
mathproblem within your class ... 

 

Did you ever work with the delegs – Editor before? 

 

Students can easily be motivated to write their first SW – document on their
own ..to translate them into Spoken Language to exchange their documents
within the classroom. 

 

Next message more to come

 

Stefan
