The Technical Signs Project (TSP) was established at the National Technical Institute for the Deaf (NTID), Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT), in 1975. This project was undertaken to help facilitate effective and precise communication in academic and career environments through the establishment of a nationally based system for collecting, evaluating, selecting, recording, and sharing (CESRS) signs used in these environments. The basic tenet of this project is that usage by content experts who are skilled sign language communicators is the determiner for signs selected for recording. Excellent resource material for professionals and students. [212 pages; soft cover]
