I recently discovered a cool new program called Sign Smith, that would be a great teaching tool for deaf students. It is a computerized sign language program, that can be used to tell stories in American Sign Language, as well as give vocabulary. This type of program can be used to scaffold learning about Deaf culture and the grammatical components of ASL in the classroom, especially if the students are being taught by a hearing teacher. You can check out using the following URL:

Hope this is helpful to some of you Deaf Ed majors out there!
