SignWriting List October 2, 2000 How wonderful, Stefan! It is great that the students from the University of Hamburg could stay a whole week ...that means they got a chance to watch SignWriting in action in your classroom on a day to day basis.... Can you tell us a little more about the students from Hamburg? Were they associated with the HamNoSys system at all? How did they find out about your work, and what was the purpose of their visit? -- Val ;-) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Valerie Sutton Visit the SignWritingSite: https://www.SignWriting.org |
