My Activity- ASL Sign Language class

But... we go to school to learn... so how do we learn in the first place?

When our professor asked the class this questions the first response that came to mind was "when I know something that I didn't know before" and had a moment of personal growth. So for my learning activity I participated in an American Sign Language workshop at Ryerson University. I learned about linguistic and cultural diversity. As well, a new method of language, communication, building allies and disrupting an ablest rhetoric. I left the workshop with that same feeling, "Wow, I know something that I didn't know before". It was an ASL101 class where the teacher taught us the alphabet, how to count till ten and some important phrases such as "Hi, nice to meet you, my name is Shanee." I now know how to say my name in Sign Language. This workshop provided me with the opportunity to look at Deaf Culture in a new lens.
