Hi Gareth
how interesting & great what you are doing. Very informative.Please advise me of the following:
I have gone through my file for me to achieve Level 3 Certificate in BSL (BSL3) units BSL 301 +BSL units 302 receptive and productive.
Theme 1-bsl knowledge and skills(mandatory)
Can use one deaf /hearing person twice(deaf lev 3) (hearing lev 4) EACH CLIP HAS TO BE 6-8 MINS LONG
Theme 2-Society(mandatory)-
Tutor chooses the subject ,productive by myself (video)- (General)-

For portfolio ,shall i print PowerPoint off and research more off internet. Anymore ideas or tips?

One will be a broadcast to test receptive and we have to tick the answer.( Deaf)

Then the tutor gave us a list where we choose, I chose: music (general) -video-productive/receptive 50/50
got DVD of Frankie wilde deaf dj.Shall i print off internet info about him and Beethoven, As well as research music school for deaf. any more ideas or tips?
Theme 3-Educational- my chosen subjects:
Stages of education :Post 16/lifelong learning- (general)productive/receptive 50/50
Teaching and learning :The role of the teacher-(General)productive/receptive 50/50.
Education provision for deaf learners: Options for deaf children at each phase of education-nursery/pre-school, primary, secondary, 6th form options, further and higher education.(Deaf)

The best sign language videos, CD-Roms and deaf TV programs. Oviously i have found a lot. what websites do you generally use??

Photo or info off internet of videos i may have with regards to DVDs i may have on deaf?

Obviously we have to keep a log of date where when we met deaf people eg deaf club.
Sorry i know its long winded.I so want this. Am so passionate about it and have lost so much just to get where i am. Hope you don't mind me e-mailing. Want to ensure I have got it right.

Hi Nettie, thanks for your message. Unfortunately I'm not a tutor and am certainly no expert having only just submitted my level 3 portfolio myself. My suggestion would be to take all these questions to your tutor and get him/her to answer each one. Try writing them down if you're struggling to articulate using sign language - I'm sure you'll find common ground between the two of you. Your tutor should know the answers and will be most familiar with the requirements from the exam board - that's their job!

Good luck!
