I have a question about tactual signing -- I think I'm
using the correct term. I'm getting a new student in the
fall who is deaf/blind. She has some vision and has been
using some ASL signs. Now they're talking about switching
her to tactual signing b/c her vision is deteriorating
rapidly and will not be functional at all much longer.
How different are tactual signing and ASL? Will she have
to drop her ASL signs and learn new signs? Will we be
able to just build on the signs she already has? Just
curious at this point.
