SUMMARY:Good News! Trix Bruce is coming back to Branford\, Connecticut!
DESCRIPTION:\n					\n						Good News! Trix Bruce is coming back to Branford\, Connecticut! \nSPECIAL THANKS  to Language Link Corporation for providing a meeting room. \nApril 30\, 2020: Thursday @ 8 am – 5 pm \nGroup Discussion: Real Life Interpreting Experiences related to Power\, Privilege\, and Oppression \nLet’s join a fascinating discussion about our real-world interpreting experiences! Each participant can share their personal perspectives about pros and cons of working in the interpreting field. Topics include Power\, Privilege and Oppression and how these affect Deaf communities. This will be an excellent networking and growth opportunity! \nInterpreters can share their experiences related to Power\, Privilege\, and Oppression. Participants can share examples of their experiences\, and work on a project. When you RSVP you’ll receive more information about the workshop.  (1.0 RID CEUs) This workshop fits RID’s PPO / Social Justice CEU requirement. \n  \nMay 1\, 2020: Friday @ 8 am – Noon \nMedical Interpreting: Questions & Answers \nInterpreting topics can be challenging to expand with ASL to show meaning more visually. This workshop will provide hands-on practice with expressive ASL visualization in medical interpreting situations. In addition\, video clips will offer practice for voice-interpreting visualized signing. Interpreters will have opportunities to improve medical-setting English-to-visualized-ASL and visualized-ASL-to-English. (0.4 RID CEUs available)   \nMay 1\, 2020: Friday @ 1:30 pm – 5:30 pm \nLexical Non-Manual Signals: The “TH” signal    \nThis workshop has a focus on the non-manual “TH” signal. Interpreters will analyze and apply this grammatical marker in various contexts. Video clips and discussion will increase interpreters’ confidence. Contexts include: character development\, structure\, English idioms\, conjunctions\, adjectives\, and more. (0.4 RID CEUs available) \nMay 2\, 2020: Saturday 8 am – 5 pm \nMedical Interpreting: How can I interpret that?   \nThrough many mentor sessions working with interpreters\, I have kept notes to share. It’s amazing to see how interpreters creatively face challenges as they translate from English to ASL. I treasure opportunities to help interpreters improve their visual thinking\, which Deaf audiences appreciate.   My workshop offers a myriad of ways to make interpreting more visual. We will demonstrate how classifiers may be used most effectively to communicate specific information in medical interpreting situations. Broaden your understanding of visual interpreting techniques regarding anatomical and medical interpreting. Learn more about Deaf Culture. Visual clips\, visual aids\, analysis\, current medical terminology\, and outlines will be available. This workshop will focus on surgery procedures\, medical tools\, birth\, and causes of injury\, illness and conditions.  (0.8 RID CEUs available) \nThe Language Link Corporation \n420 E Main Street\, Building 2 – Third Floor \nBranford\, CT 06405 \nLimited Seating – registration open on a first come\, first serve basis \nBIO: Patricia (Trix) Bruce\, from Seattle\, Washington\, is known nationwide as both a workshop presenter and an American Sign Language performer.
