RIDBC Auslan Tutor
The RIDBC Auslan Tutor is a portable video-based Australian Sign Language (Auslan) teaching resource developed specifically for the iPhone and iPod touch.It is designed for families of young deaf children to assist them to learn Auslan and promote early communication between parent and child. Over 500 signs are included. These signs were carefully chosen as those most needed by families in their interactions with, and teaching of, their young deaf children.
Each sign has five corresponding entries which can be viewed on demand as often as necessary. The five entries are:
a photo of the handshape used to form the sign
a video clip demonstrating the single sign
a video clip of the sign used in a phrase
a video clip of the phrase used in a sentence
a text note about Auslan grammar that is pertinent to the sign, phrase, or sentence. These notes have been included to help the user gain a basic understanding of the grammatical structure of Auslan.
