SignWriting List June 27, 2001 Hello Ingvild! Congratulations once again on this achievement (see below). Very important work. I am glad it is published and available to the world. Are there links on the web yet, for some of the publications you mention below? If so, I can add them to your article on our SignWritingSite, including any other additions you would like me to make, regarding these new developments. To explain for SW List members....Ingvild's research has brought the subject of Physics, and other sciences, into Deaf Education, in a much more concrete way. An important question in Deaf Education is..."How do teachers of science inspire Deaf students to learn the sciences?" I am sure it is not easy, since many teachers of the Deaf, who are hearing, may not know a signed language well enough to explain the subject properly in the Deaf student's native language....and so Ingvild's work is bringing attention to this issue, as well as other issues. You can read about this on our SignWritingSite: TERMINOLOGY IN THE MAKING: PHYSICS TERMINOLOGY IN NORWEGIAN SIGN LANGUAGE by dr. philos. Ingvild Roald https://www.SignWriting.org/forums/linguistics/ling032.html Congrats once again, Ingvild!
