Product Description
If ASL is not your first language, then it's likely that using them did not come naturally to you. In this DVD, Dr. Byron Bridges will challenge you further by asking what type of classifier you struggle with most and lets you practice with 27 handshapes.
OVERVIEW
Classifiers is one of the most flexible and dynamic aspects of ASL. This presentation will teach you how to identify the types of classifiers there are and how to use them appropriately. It will introduce you to terms like perimeter morpheme " "movement roots " and "classifier predicates" to give you tools to discuss your work. This DVD details classifiers in a scaffold approach that allows you to learn about this imperative linguistic aspect of ASL in a manner that is fun, thought provoking, and allows for creativity. Access to this DVD will provide you the means necessary to conduct deliberate practice. [Dr. Byron Bridges; DVD: 101 minutes of instruction and practice; 200 additional minutes worth of practice; presented in ASL; English voice over and subtitles] DVDs not returnable once opened.

Disappointed in the material. It offered very little of what was advertised. Not worth the money for basic classifiers. The information was not well put together and often times very difficult to navigate. The mouse does not work to click on a specific section, you must use the arrow keys to navigate and wastes a lot of time. The classifier pictures I thought would have been great practice if nothing else was going to work, but the students felt the descriptions were not well done and missing important information-like signing about a caterpillar on a tree branch. You simply showed a number one on its side, but didn't explain what that handshape was first and then a caterpillar climbed on it. by not saying what that handshape represented it could have been a branch, a pencil, or anything else connected to that handshape.(anything!) This was found throughout the disc, and I hope it can be cleaned up, updated and produced in higher quality. The information just wasn't consistent. I would only recommend for very new signers who know nothing about classifiers.
