Framing ASL education
American Sign Language (ASL) education is experiencing significant growth and increased prominence in academic and public domains. ASL is now widely regarded as a valid option for fulfilling foreign language and general education requirements at postsecondary institutions across the US.

Development of the American Sign Language Fingerspelling and Numbers Comprehension Test (ASL FaN-CT)
We describe the development and initial validation of the “ASL Fingerspelling and Number Comprehension Test” (ASL FaN-CT), a test of recognition proficiency for fingerspelled words in American Sign Language (ASL).

The stud…
