Have fun in learning sign language <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You want to learn a new language, but after a few days of intensive practice you tend to give up. Learning a language is a time-consuming and difficult process. In addition, the teaching material is often dry or boring. This problem also occurs when learning Dutch with Signs.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

In Dutch with Signs, you talk to your child and support key words with gestures. Family, friends and other important people around a hearing-impaired child sometimes need an extra push to learn this mode of communication. The serious game Handlantis supports this.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n <\/div>\n \n \n<\/div>\n

\"\"Aanpak<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Handlantis originated from the best situation imaginable, namely from the target group itself. A parent with a child with hearing difficulties knocked on our door asking if gaming could help in learning Dutch with Signs. Of course we were eager to take up this challenge! We sought collaboration with the experts at Pento Audiological Center and set to work on a creative concept. What if the game took place in a world where sound sounds completely different? The underwater world of Handlantis was born.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
