Children’s literature often presents challenges in vocabulary, descriptive language, and the use of nonsense or gibberish words. This workshop will allow participants to look at bodies of children’s literature text that are traditionally established in content, context, and tone, and the obstacles in translation that comes with these traditional elements. This workshop will provide you with the tools to translate text into ASL without sacrificing content, while preserving the fun and linguistic integrity of children’s literature.
Language: All four workshops during the 2023-2024 EIPA Workshop Series will be presented in ASL. ASL interpreters will provide voiced interpretation of the presentation; however, no interpretation will be provided during activities in breakout rooms. EIPA Workshops are designed for skilled interpreters able to fully participate in ASL conversations.
