How long have you been an interpreter and what made learn to sign?

Ironically, I was initially interested in becoming a speech pathologist!  Around '93 someone recommended I read Oliver Sacks' "Seeing Voices" an amazing book that anyone working in education, employment or accessibility should read, buy viagra without prescription.

Why is there such a lack of information about Deaf and hard of hearing web users?

I think a lot of it has to do with the fact that people tend to group deaf, order viagra no prescription, Viagra sale, Deaf and Hearing Impaired users into one big group of people who "just can't hear. Most of us know someone that has diminished hearing through age or industrial damage, order cheap viagra, Buy viagra us, noise etc. But Buy viagra without prescription, few of us understand Deafness from a cultural, linguistic perspective, i.e. from the perspective of those Deaf who use sign language as a first language and may not be fluent in English as a second language, viagra online review.

Is it true that If a website doesn't have any rich media such as audio or video content then there's no need to worry about access for Deaf and hard of hearing users?

No that's only partly addressing the issue. Once you start to understand that we're talking about providing content to an audience who speaks another language all together, buy no rx viagra, Buy viagra pills, then it starts to become a lot clearer. Because then you have to start thinking about how you write and how you present content to such an audience, viagra for sale.

Can a technical approach to accessibility accommodate Deaf and hard of hearing users?

Look the thing is, when it comes to accessibility we're talking about *people*, buy viagra without prescription. Cheap viagra online, We're talking about User Experience.

Deafness is not a binary thing, viagra pharmacy online. Buy viagra without prescription, People are not just Deaf or hearing. Cheapest viagra price, The most unrecognised attribute of Deafness is th fact that many native signers have English as a second language.

Why should web teams come to your workshop?

I think my last point above is the most compelling reason, buy viagra canada. Purchase viagra without prescription, We're not just talking about people who can't hear. We're talking about people who speak a completely different language, cheap viagra no rx. One that is visual, spatial, grammatically different, buy viagra without prescription. Viagra price, It's much more involved than simply captioning a video.

Anything else you'd like to add?

I'd really like to encourage people to come to the workshop, viagra drug. Buy viagra internet, In the past ten years I've worked on the web, despite the number of really smart, cheap viagra no prescription, Cheap viagra pharmacy, engaged, interested people I've met working in web accessibility and user experience, online pharmacy viagra, Viagra india, I have never met a single person who actually understood the difference between deafness from a medical perspective and Deafness from a cultural perspective, the different approches required for each group and the reasons why, viagra discount.
