"Auslan is our passion and our goal is to

provide everyone with the opportunity to learn Auslan"

We are so excited that Auslan is now being offered in more schools than ever before. With a shortage of Deaf qualified Auslan teachers available Australia wide, this wholly online Auslan LOTE course is designed for the classroom teacher to teach Auslan LOTE in their classrooms (or for a single teacher to teach Auslan to the whole school).

The Auslan LOTE online course aims to be a practical resource for the Auslan teacher minimising planning and preparation by including many aspects of the Scope and Sequence from the Auslan Curriculum.

Features of this course include:

• 40 videos, 800+ signs in 25 major categories, plus videos to practice fingerspelling and sentences to practice Auslan grammar including important grammatical informational videos and notes.
• Downloadable powerpoint presentation with recommended curriculum and activity ideas for an entire year.
• Downloadable PDF of each sign and sentence taught in each video. These can be given to students to use as 'memory prompts'.
• Videos have a verbal deaf teacher and two deaf Auslan teachers (with interpreter voiceover) to ensure a range of learning experiences for the Auslan teacher.
• Tips and ideas on how the content of the LOTE course can be applied to any classroom using games snd classroom activities for Foundation right through to Grade 6. 
• Downloadable PDF's after each video of the words / sentences (in English) that are taught in the video.
• 100% online. All videos are all prerecorded and no "live" online sessions via Zoom you need to attend.

How you can use this course in your school:

1. The Auslan teacher learns the Auslan lesson for the week from the videos and prepares the lesson for teaching Auslan in the classroom.
2. The Auslan teacher can view the videos as many times as they wish in order to learn the signs perfectly to teach the students.
3. We recommend that the videos are not shown in the classroom as the students need to follow the Auslan teacher's directions without distractions.
4. You can appoint an already employed classroom teacher to become the single Auslan teacher throughout the school or each classroom teacher can be the Auslan teacher for their class.

Our Feedback:

"Darren, thank you so much for the way in which you presented Auslan Level 1. You brought humour into it, which I love and made it an enjoyable language to learn. Categorising and breaking it down the way you did was helpful to get through and refer back when needed" - Nada Cevizovic (level 1 student)
