Talking Hands – Open Online Platform for Learning Sign Language
Talking Hands” aims to develop an open, flexible online platform for everybody who would like to learn basic elements of sign language at a non-sequential manner – which means that learners will be able to select topics of interest at will, such as holidays, days of the week, medical terms, etc. Although there are specialized schools that offer sign language lessons to relevant stakeholders, there is a lack of learning materials freely available online, as most of them are in books and this is not easy because one needs to see the signs a teacher is making through motion to comprehend them.
