Sign On to Computers: A Dictionary of Computer Signs.
Zier, Cathy Diane; And Others
This manual defines basic computer terminology and presents sign language gestures for the terms. The manual uses the Atlanta Area School for the Deaf's Manually Coded English Sign Language System, a compilation of signs derived from Signing Exact English and American Sign Language; it also indicates those instances where fingerspelling is required. The 173 terms, covering such areas as programming languages, computer hardware, word processing, and computer functions, are entered in alphabetical order, and except for terms that are fingerspelled, such as REM and GOTO, each term is illustrated with a line drawing of a person making the sign for that term and (where appropriate) of the object being defined.
