Abstract
Computer-assisted instructional television has been shown to be a compelling educational medium for use in the education of deaf persons. A variety of demonstration lessons using microcomputer-controlled videodisc and videotape has been presented in previous symposia. The DAVID System is now used instructionally for speechreading and sign language training. This paper reviews the principles and requisites for interactive instructional television production. A discussion of the advantages and disadvantages of the hardware and software necessary to implement computer-assisted interactive instructional television is discussed. This paper and the workshop provide a discussion and demonstration of an application of the DAVID system to receptive sign language practice. The lesson provides practice of the individual sign, the sentence, and the paragraph comprehension levels.
