  • Sign Language Typology Series
    SIGN LANGUAGE TYPOLOGY SERIES The Sign Language Typology Series is dedicated to the comparative study of sign languages around the world. Individual or collective works that systematically explore typological variation across sign languages are the focus of this series, with particular emphasis on undocumented, underdescribed and endangered sign languages. The scope of the series primarily includes cross-linguistic studies of grammatical domains across a larger or smaller sample of sign languages, but also encompasses the study of individual sign languages from a typological perspective and comparison between signed and spoken languages in terms of language modality, as well as theoretical and methodological contributions to sign language typology.

  • The Word Order Parameter in Slovenian Sign Language Transitive, Ditransitive, Classifier and Locative Constructions
    Scuola Dottorale di Ateneo Graduate School Dottorato di ricerca in Scienze del Linguaggio Ciclo 28 Anno di discussione 2016 The word order parameter in Slovenian Sign Language Transitive, ditransitive, classifier and locative constructions SETTORE SCIENTIFICO DISCIPLINARE DI AFFERENZA: L-LIN/01 Tesi di Dottorato di Matic Pavliˇc,matricola 955992 Coordinatore del Dottorato Tutore del Dottorando Prof.ssa Alessandra Giorgi Prof.ssa Chiara Branchini To Mila Acknowledgements In this doctoral thesis, a minority language is described, which, to date, has received close to no attention by linguists. I like to imagine that this description will have a direct impact on the small community of SZJ signers. I hope that they will see it as a tool to research, understand and cherish their language. I will be happy if it will turn out to be useful in their daily lives. I am grateful to everybody that made my research possible and contributed to my decision to choose Slovenian Sign Language as a topic of my study. First of all, I would like to thank my parents, who brought me up, encouraged my curiosity and always supported me in every way possible. Secondly, this research was supported by the Scholarship for Slovenian citizens for postgraduate study abroad number 11010-716/2012, and partially supported by COST Action IS1006 summer school grant IS1006-060614-044777, COST Action IS1006 Short Term Scientific Mission grant ECOST-STSM- IS1006-271014-051446 and Ca’ Foscari internal funds for PhD mobility. Although the financial aspect is not the one that matters the most, it nevertheless represents a foundation. That is why I would like to thank all the administrative workers that helped me with the applications and the reports.

The current study seeks to investigate the current AAC practices in Cyprus. Data were collected through electronically distributed questionnaires to all registered speech and language therapists (n = 330), contacted by the Cyprus Speech Therapy Association. The questionnaire comprised 12 questions, which were categorized into three sections: background information (educational level and clinical experience), training undergone (during or after completion of tertiary education) and participants’ AAC practices (caseload, assessment and intervention). The findings from the analysis of the returned data (n = 59) reveal that training provision on augmentative and alternative communication has positively influenced practice. Most of the participants received training in the specific field during their bachelor’s degree, rather than during later education. Life-long training on different language systems (including different assistive technology tools, such as symbols and talking products as well as methods such as the Picture Exchange Communication System) also played a pivotal role in their work. Regarding the assessment process, the findings show that whilst there are a number of standardized language assessment tools, the participants relied heavily on non-standardized tools and/or their clinical judgment.

Qualquer contribuição para minimizar as barreiras no acesso à informação promove a equidade. Nos dias que correm, o conteúdo da Internet ainda não está adaptado às pessoas com deficiências auditivas e visuais. O mesmo aplica-se à maioria dos websites das instituições de ensino superior, como é o caso do website do Instituto Superior de Engenharia do Porto (ISEP). Os websites institucionais têm a obrigação de disponibilizar a informação equitativamente entre os estudantes. Mesmo tendo em conta que as instituições de ensino superior dispõem de um espaço físico dedicado ao apoio e integração dos estudantes, a ajuda ou informação requerida não é normalmente disponibilizada atempadamente. O objetivo desta dissertação é apresentar uma proposta para a melhoria da integração dos estudantes do ensino superior através do desenvolvimento de uma plataforma web que promove a equidade. A plataforma web irá contribuir para a resolução de problemas relacionados com a integração e a ansiedade dos estudantes, ao fornecer meios que facilitam a comunicação entre os estudantes, de forma a que possam encontrar colegas predispostos a ajudar.
