ASL Aspire is an online educational platform that teaches STEM education for K-12 deaf and hard-of-hearing students and their teachers. We are providing a seamlessly integrable curriculum that aligns with U.S. national core standards and is created in collaboration with deaf professionals who are actively developing new signs. Our interactive mini-games enable students to practice the signs while having fun, and our machine-learning technology enables them to validate signs in front of their webcam. With our user-friendly dashboard, teachers can track student progress and identify areas for intervention, making in-class instruction easier. We’re committed to empowering students with the tools they need to succeed while providing teachers with an innovative solution to enhance classroom instruction for deaf and hard-of-hearing students.
