Deaf Talks is a series of presentations in ASL by Deaf people about something they know and love. It is an unique opportunity to expand our language base through exposure to high-caliber language models in topic areas that weren't covered in the classroom.

Animated Journey through the Body on the Sugar Train

aj granda

Aj will take you on a VISUAL journey of sugar's path through the body as it is metabolized using role shift and personification - the secret ingredients of an excellent interpretation.

Bicultural/Bilingual Sharing in Personal and Professional Experiences

Julia Petersen

Julia will share her personal experiences growing up in a bicultural/bilingual family including her genogram. She will also discuss how this valuable tool is used when working with families. Participants will have the opportunity to draw their own genogram to assist them in developing a clear visual image when a deaf person describes his or her own family.

Julia will also share her experience traveling & living in different countries where she communicated cross-cultural with hearing and deaf people. Sharing foreign signs will be a part of this presentation.
