Abdulezer, Susan Computer Assisted Instruction Deafness Demonstration Programs Educational Technology Elementary Secondary Education Hypermedia Independent Study Inservice Teacher Education Instructional Development Interactive Video Literacy Education Optical Disks Sign Language This report describes ongoing activities and results of the HyperSign Immersion Project developed at the Public School for the Deaf in New York City, New York. The project's objectives were to: (1) provide a means to enable Deaf students to assume a self-directed role in education; (2) provide an on-site prototype of a technologically supportive environment for the improvement of basic literacy and math skills in Deaf students; and (3) train teachers to use these new tools to develop sign language-supported modules in their own subject areas, choosing their own means, vision, and style to create lessons. The project produced an interactive compact disc (CD) called streetsigns which included 650 signs for use on a school-based computer system. The signs are organized into 24 categories of sign vocabulary based on metaphors of city life, such as subway, restaurant, police station, and library. The signs can be easily incorporated into teacher-authored and student-authored projects. The "StreetSigns" CD works smoothly with word processing, desktop publishing, database, presentation, authoring tools, and works programs. Teachers and students have developed several projects using the technology. A description of the contents of the "Street Signs" CD and techniques for navigating through the computer software are appended. (JDD)
