About this resource
This quiz focuses on Deaf culture and American Sign Language (ASL) history, designed for high school students at the 9th-12th grade level studying world languages. The assessment covers critical cultural knowledge including historical figures, artistic contributions, and community development within Deaf culture. Students need foundational understanding of ASL as a complete language system, knowledge of significant Deaf historical figures like William Hoy and Clayton Valli, and awareness of unique Deaf communities such as Martha's Vineyard. The questions require students to distinguish between factual information and misconceptions about Deaf culture, demonstrating their comprehension of how Deaf individuals have contributed to sports, literature, and community development. Students must understand concepts like ASL poetry as a legitimate literary genre, the historical development of sign language communities, and the cultural significance of shared communication experiences between Deaf individuals and their environment. Created by Thomas Wills, a World Languages teacher in the US who teaches grades 9-13. This assessment serves as an excellent formative evaluation tool for students progressing through ASL curriculum, particularly those working with the "Signing Naturally" textbook series. Teachers can utilize this quiz as a unit review to reinforce cultural competency before moving to more advanced language skills, or as homework to ensure students are absorbing essential cultural knowledge alongside their language acquisition. The true/false format makes it ideal for quick comprehension checks during class warmups or as preparation for more comprehensive cultural assessments. This quiz aligns with ACTFL World-Readiness Standards for Learning Languages, specifically addressing the Cultures standard (understanding the relationship between cultural practices and perspectives) and the Connections standard (connecting ASL study to other disciplines like history and literature). The assessment supports NCSSFL-ACTFL Can-Do Statements for cultural understanding at the intermediate level.
