This document provides instruction on using role shifting and classifiers to tell stories in American Sign Language (ASL). It begins by explaining the importance of storytelling for building relationships. The document then demonstrates how to use role shifting, facial expressions, and body language when narrating stories involving throwing or passing objects between people. It provides examples of signers conveying different outcomes of catching or dropping a ball. It also demonstrates using locative and instrument classifiers to describe the movement and handling of objects. Finally, it shows how to apply role shifting when telling a story involving passing liquids between people.
This includes the state of our literature during the colonization of Spaniards and Americans. This also shows the influences of the 2 nations, the characteristics and themes of literature during their colonization.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2. Introduction
Sharing personal and amusing stories is one
way people connect with each other. The
ability to share stories is an important
component in developing and maintaining
relationships. Stories expand the conversations
beyond everyday topics. Telling stories about
unforgettable moments is sure to make others
laugh, wince, or sigh in relief and is a good
springboard for strengthening connections
with each other.
3. Role Shifting
This is one of several narrative units designed to help
you develop essential skills needed to tell a story
successfully. Role shift is an essential tool used in
telling anecdotes, stories, or even jokes. Role shift
allows you to tell what happened in a vivid way, and
it allows you the rich opportunity to describe the
person’s thought, behavior, or reaction
simultaneously. Additionally, you will learn to
maintain spatial agreement between the location of
people; sequence classifiers; time reactions to
coincide with the action; and to elaborate on a story
by giving descriptions, sharing thoughts, and giving
reasons.
4. Throwing and Catching: Basic
Role Shift Sequence
• Tell where you and the other person are located.
• Name the object.
• Tell how the object is passed between the two
people.
• Tell the outcome (Possible outcomes):
– Person catches the object
– Person drops the object
– Person is hit by the object
– Person sees the object just in time
– Person is nearly hit by the object
5. Now watch the videos of the girl
signing the 5 different outcomes.
Watch her role shifting, facial
expressions, and body language.
Also watch her timing reactions
and how they coincide with the
actions taking place.
6. Outcome A: Person Catches the Ball
1. Tell where you and the other person are
located.
• Stefanie introduces and places the characters
with raised eyebrows. She shows agreement
by glancing in the direction of the man when
referring to him.
1. Name the object.
• Stefanie shifts to the woman and tells that the
ball was thrown, fingerspelling “ball”.
1. Tell how the object is passed between the two
people.
• Stefanie shifts to the woman to show her
throwing the ball and tracks the movement of
the ball with her eyes as it travels toward the
man located on her left.
1. Tell the outcome.
• Stefanie shifts to the man, changing her eye
gaze and body orientation, and resumes
tracking the imaginary ball from the man’s
point of view. The man’s expression shows
that the ball was caught with ease.
View this video segment to see how each part of
the role shift sequence is addressed in the
signed narrative. The segment will repeat, the
second time in slow motion. Watch for three
things: use of role shift, raised eyebrows, and
eye gaze.
Note: Raised eyebrows and a slight tilt of the
head are used to introduce a topic, to signal a
change in the topic of conversation, to refer to a
previously mentioned topic, or to emphasize
the topic.
7. Outcome B: Person Drops the Ball
Video Notes:
Stefanie shifts her body to show
the man readying himself to catch
the ball (open mouth in
anticipation of catching the ball)
and simultaneously shows the
ball approaching with her right
hand (LCL:S “ball”). When the
ball reaches the man’s hand, the
signer changes her facial
expression into “th” mouth
expression meaning “clumsily” or
“out of control” and continues
that expression when showing the
ball bouncing away.
In the remaining four video segments,
the story begins the same, but ends
with a different outcome that
requires the signer to use different
expressions. The beginning of each
video segment is shown at regular
speed, but the different outcomes are
shown in slow motion.
8. Outcome C: Person Is Hit by the Ball
Video Notes:
Stefanie shifts to show the man
looking away using “th”
expression indicating
“inattentive” or “unaware” and
simultaneously shows the ball
approaching him with her right
hand (LCL:S “ball”). The
moment the ball hits the signer’s
cheek, she changes her
expression from “being unaware”
to “pain/anger” while her eye
gaze shifts to the right to show
the man looking to see who threw
the ball.
In the remaining four video segments, the story
begins the same, but ends with a different
outcome that requires the signer to use different
expressions. The beginning of each video
segment is shown at regular speed, but the
different outcomes are shown in slow motion.
Note: LCL stands for “Locative Classifier”, which
will be discussed in more detail later in this lesson.
9. Outcome D: Person Sees the Ball Just
in Time
Video Notes:
Stefanie shifts to show the man
blinking as he turns his head to
the right with an “unsuspecting”
facial expression. Her expression
changes to “surprised/panic”
showing the man’s reaction to the
oncoming ball before making the
catch. The moment the ball is
caught, Stefanie blinks her eyes to
indicate impact. When she opens
her eyes, her head shakes
showing relief.
In the remaining four video segments, the
story begins the same, but ends with a
different outcome that requires the signer
to use different expressions. The
beginning of each video segment is shown
at regular speed, but the different
outcomes are shown in slow motion.
10. Outcome E: Person is Nearly Hit by
the BallVideo Notes:
Again, Stefanie shifts to show the
man looking away using “th” mouth
expression indicating “inattentive” or
“unaware.” With her right hand she
shows the ball coming using
LCL:1”direction of ball.” As the ball
reaches the vicinity of the signer’s
face, she changes her facial
expression from an “unaware” to a
“surprised” reaction. The signer
continues the “surprise” expression
as she changes her eye gaze to show
the man looking to see who threw the
ball and at the same time her right
hand, LCL:1”ball passing,” shows
the ball going past the man’s face.
In the remaining four video segments,
the story begins the same, but ends
with a different outcome that
requires the signer to use different
expressions. The beginning of each
video segment is shown at regular
speed, but the different outcomes are
shown in slow motion.
11. Locative Classifiers (LCL)
• For objects that are thrown, you should
use a Locative Classifier (LCL).
• Locative Classifiers tell the location of
the object and/or trace its path of
movement.
• The description of movement is often
accompanied by facial expressions to
show distance or the speed of the
movement.
12. Locative Classifiers (LCL)
Watch these 2 examples of
locative classifiers being used
to show the description of
movement and the
accompanying facial
expressions to show distance
and/or speed.
13. Locative Classifiers (LCL)
• Example 1: “fast” =
low but level
movement
accompanied by an
“oo” mouth and
squinted eyes.
• Example 2: “popped
up into the air” is
described with a high
and curved movement
accompanied by a
slightly open mouth.
14. Instrument Classifiers (ICL)
• To show how you pass an object to the other
person and how they receive it, you should
use an Instrument Classifier (ICL).
• Instrument Classifiers show how a person
handles/manipulates an object.
• ICL’s are basically a way to imitate what you
will do.
• ICL’s also show the size
and shape of the object.
15. Instrument Classifiers (ICL)
Watch this role shifting video, paying
particular attention to the following two
examples of instrument classifiers
being used.
Example 1: The ICL handshape shows
how a bouquet of flowers is held, given,
and received with role shift.
Example 2: The ICL handshape shows
us the size and shape of the ball and,
with role shift, how the ball is tossed
and caught.
16. Instrument Classifiers (ICL)
If your story involves a
mishap with an object, you
may want to use ICLs to
show how the object was
handled leading up to and in
causing an incident such as
dropping a glass filled with
water, mistakenly breaking a
window with a bat, or
gripping a rope to avoid
falling into water.
Here’s an example story involving an
object and a mishap called “Egg Toss.”
Watch his use of instrument classifiers
and role shifting.
17. Passing of Liquids: Basic Role
Shift Sequence
• Tell where you and the other person are
located.
• Tell what the person is doing.
• (Transition) Tell how the liquid is
passed between the people.
• Describe the result and the person’s
reaction.
18. Now watch the video of Nikki
telling about an incident
involving a boy and his water
gun.
19. Passing of Liquids: Water Gun
1.Tell where you and the other person are located.
• Nikki establishes the spatial relationship between herself and the
boy by establishing herself laying on one of the benches, and
through role shift and classifiers shows where the boy is in front of
her.
2.Tell what the person is doing.
• Nikki role shifts to the boy showing him mischievously holding a
water gun. She shows him moving around and looking up at Nikki
as if plotting a prank. Then, she role shifts back to herself watching
the boy climbing up the bleachers.
3.(Transition) Tell how the liquid is passed between the people.
• Nikki uses a role shift variation to show the boy holding the gun,
squirting her, and the water splashing her face from her (receiver’s)
point of view. This is possible because the sign “to shoot” is an
agreement verb that can show the initiator’s actions without role
shift. For her transition, Nikki uses a change in facial expressions.
4.Describe the result or the person’s reaction.
• This part begins with the quick mention of water splashing on
Nikki’s face and continues with Nikki’s reaction (getting up quickly
and bawling out the boy). Then, Nikki concludes with a description
of the boy apologizing as he clumsily but quickly leaves the scene.
Note: You will learn more about
Role Shift Variations and
Transitions later in this unit.
20. Passing of Liquids: Basic Role
Shift Sequence
Here are some more
examples showing a
liquid being passed
between people,
following the basic
role shift sequence for
that.
Note: For each situation, notice the other person’s
position and distance from you and visualize the
action sequence and the reactions before, during,
and after the situation
occurs.
21. Element Classifiers (ECL)
• When dealing with interactions with liquids
and similar elements, you need to use Element
Classifiers (ECL).
• Element Classifiers show movements of
“elements” such as air, smoke, water/liquid,
rain, fire, and light.
• You need to show where the liquid came from
and where it landed.
• When showing where liquid landed, you must
role shift to the other person to show
where the liquid landed and their
reaction.
22. Element Classifiers (ECL)
Watch the examples in this
video again, this time paying
close attention to the
following two examples of
element classifiers.
Example 1:
ECL: S->5 “liquid splash,
spill, splatter”
Example 2:
ECL: S->1 “liquid squirted”
