Abstract
We present a new highly interactive program to teach American Sign Language (ASL) for K-3 mathematics by 3D animation. We aim at increasing: (1) the opportunity for deaf children to learn arithmetic via interactive media; (2) the effectiveness of (hearing) parents in teaching arithmetic to their deaf children; (3) the effectiveness of ASL K-8 mathematics teachers. Using state-of-the-art 3D computer animation technology we have created a learning tool to be used for K-8 classroom and home learning, and for closed captioning in interactive media and internet.
