Global Thinking – Sign Language 

The Global Thinking classes are currently studying an interdisciplinary unit on Inclusive Design. The purpose of the unit is for students to further develop empathy and understanding of the diversity of our world. Students have been learning about various disabilities and the challenges that many people face.  At a recent lesson, students learned about hearing impairment and the need to develop improved communication methods. Students learned sign language and practised phrases with each other.  They found it challenging but insightful. 

The video below features Cheryl Chan and Hilary Au Yeung from 08N1 communicating using sign language.
