    South African Sign language Communication Module – Semester 2
    Assessment Schedule

    Assessment Requirements Lesson


    Theory assessment is a multiple choice based on
    Theory Assessment (on Lessons 1- lessons 1 - 4 Own time
    4) – 40 Marks

    This assessment tests receptive skills – how well


    you can watch someone signing and interpret. Lesson 12
    Learn SASL vocab well and pay attention to the
    Communicative Receptive Task –
    SASL sentence structure. SASL language
    30 Marks conventions in context will be assessed.

    This assessment tests expressive skills – how well


    you can sign using the vocab given and using the Lesson 18
    parameters as well as SASL sentence structure.
    Communicative Expressive Task –
    30 Marks
     Three assessments for this module.
     Use the schedule provided as your guide and plan to revise and study accordingly
     You will require a phone/laptop camera that records clearly. It will be required
    for your expressive assessment.
     Assessments must be handed in on time. Marking is very time consuming
    especially for the expressive assessment as each video of each student is watched
    individually and then marked.
     Make sure all videos are watched before sending to me. It must be clear so I can
    see your face and signing space clearly. If I can not see your hands and your face
    clearly, assessing the use of parameters is not possible. Therefore I suggest that
    you position your camera or phone correctly capturing your signing space.
     Ensure your videos are saved so that we can retrieve them if lost due to technical
    difficulty.
     Questions

    1.What is Deafness?
    2.What are the causes of
    Deafness?
    3.How much do you know
    about Deaf people?
    4.Do you know about Deaf
    education in South Africa?
