Résumé / Abstract

Sign language is a visual language for deaf people, using hands, facial expressions and body movements. The Centre for Sign Language and Deaf Communication (ZGH) at the University of Klagenfurt produced a multimedia CD-ROM as a companion to the Beginners' Course in Austrian Sign Language (OEGS) for hearing students. This CD-ROM is the first available electronic course of Austrian Sign Language. It contains dialogues, exercises and games as well as explanations on sign language grammar and hints on Deaf culture, covering more than the first semester of sign language instruction. It is not intended for self-study, but should rather be used as a study tool in connection with a presence course. Special features are its flexible programming, which allows the reuse of the structure for other products, a small authoring tool called Lesson Manager, and the variety of exercise types.
