The Signing Earth Science Dictionary (SESD) is an interactive 3D sign language dictionary designed for students in grades 7-12 who are deaf or hard of hearing and studying Earth and space science content. It is also intended to serve as a resource for teachers and other professionals who work with them.

YOU control the placement of the character - not us!Use the controls to choose the sign language you prefer; view the illustration; speed up or slow down the signing; and send the character to his "home" or default position. The signing will automatically loop until you go back (using the "back" arrow in the top left corner), thereby exiting from the signing page.
