Auslan Resources
is run by Susan McConnell, a fourth
generation Deaf and native Auslan user.
Susan worked as a Teacher of the Deaf for almost 10 years, and also
taught LOTE Auslan in primary schools, as well as VCE Auslan in high
schools (Years 11 and 12).
For Teachers
Schools now require Auslan teachers to be able teach Auslan
effectively to students as a second language, using the Australian
Curriculum. Many teachers (as was my experience first hand) find it
time consuming to create quality Auslan teaching materials, or even
try to find quality Auslan resources anywhere.
For this reason, I have invested many hours into creating
quality Auslan resources especially for teachers, to save them time,
so that they can teach effectively to their students.
If you are a teacher visiting this website, I hope you will find the
resources useful.
South
Dialect Auslan
and North Dialect Auslan
This website now includes both South and North Dialect
Auslan, please choose the correct Dialect for your school.
South Dialect - Vic, SA, WA, Tas, NT North Dialect - QLD, NSW
Some Auslan signs in Australia are different from
state to state, however most Deaf people have no problem
understanding each other.
When teaching Auslan, please double
check the signs with someone who is knowledgeable about Auslan in
your state, as there may be some sign variations due to local area,
age, social influences, etc.
