Just Curious what most prefer to use ASL resource on Signing Naturally or Master ASL to teach to community. What the most people like the method of learning in ASL.
I use Master as supplementary. Its great book, really. But I do not use it for college levels though. These pictures/clips mostly gear toward youth-generation. I have diverse students, many are non traditional students. I need pictures or clips that are more appropriate for those non traditional students. But overall I rate Master top and so are SN. Though SN needs to update their, too!
I used Signing Naturally. MasterASL is good for reference. You can use a few examples or sentences from MasterASL for teaching. Not using for class. MasterASL is good but this would be easier for hearing students to depend on "English" rather than learn more of ASL with Signing Naturally. MasterASL is a good tool, my opinion, but not for class.
My friend showed me the masterasl book before. He teaches asl at his high school and he told me that book master asl is used for high school students. Signing Naturally is for college students but my friend told me that some high school asl teachers use signing Naturally though. I would say that master asl is easier to use for high school students than using singing naturally book. Signing naturally is actually used for college levels.
