Classifiers are handshapes we use in American sign language (ASL) to show the movement, placement, orientation, size, and shape of a noun. Since ASL is a rule-governed language when using classifiers you must first identify the noun, then you can use the classifier to show how the object moves or is placed in relationship to other objects (Aron).

The moment someone Deaf or hard of hearing had to type out their sentences to communicate with me, I came to the conclusion that I needed to educate others through my Graduation Project. After talking with many people, I discovered that there are many issues the Deaf face when finding jobs, let alone life-long careers. When a job is finally acquired, many different circumstances may come up which can be difficult.

Some people might encourage you to take American Sign Language because it's "an easy hundred" or there's no homework, but, after taking this class for the entire time I've been in high school, I can say that there are plenty of reasons to take ASL and none of them have to do with getting a good grade.

Our world has changed so much, especially for Deaf people. Less than a century ago, the ability to text and email weren’t available, and communication between Deaf and hearing people seemed much harder. Deaf people became weary of interactions with hearing people, for fear of being scammed or cheated. People who were hearing and knew sign language were sparse. Love Is Never Silent shows the communication barriers and how, for a Deaf couple, they relied on their hearing daughter to be their ears in the world.

Communication is an essential element of our lives. We engage in this activity either verbally or non-verbally; utilizing speech, written and electronic messages, touch, facial expressions, and sign language. Communicating effectively, surprisingly, is difficult for numerous reasons. Misinterpretations, misperceptions, and misconceptions are not uncommon. While communicating in the finest of circumstances is challenging at best; envision being deaf, and having the inability to converse with others imposed upon you. Those in the deaf community speak their language in a hearing world and, unfortunately, this world can be rather intolerant. The acts of discrimination and oppression deaf people have endured over the years is alarming.

One may reach out for assistance, while others will ignore the fact that they need help. However, significant others or friends may try to change one’s ways in helping and assisting them to adjust to the everyday lifestyle. Furthermore, the film Children of a Lesser God demonstrates how the deaf learn to communicate with the hearing.

Although Sarah is incapable of speaking, James communicates with her through signing; however, a performance by James’s deaf students occurs that leaves Sarah storming away in frustration.
