Video feedback built for sign language programs
Your students already submit their signing on video. Classroom is the platform made for exactly that: feedback signed and pinned to the moment, freeze-frame corrections, rubrics and a gradebook, all in a review surface designed for watching signers. More for teachers, clearer for students, from a company that only does sign language.
Signing gets treated like any other clip
Most programs already collect student video in a platform built for every subject. Here is what that costs a sign language class.
Built for every subject, so not for yours
The same platform serves speech, nursing, and teacher prep. Signing gets what everything else gets: a typed comment on a timeline. Freeze frames, signed replies, and the things a sign language teacher reaches for every week are not there.
You have built a workflow of workarounds
Typed comments that describe a handshape. Screenshots. A rubric in another document. A separate video for the reply. It works, mostly, and it costs you hours every week that the tool should be saving.
Your students pay for it and still guess
Students pay per course to submit video, then read text about a visual language. A second-semester student should be able to watch the correction, not decode it.
Purpose-built, by a company that only does sign language
We know what a good correction looks like and what it costs when it gets lost, because every product we make exists to keep sign language from getting lost. SyncSigns builds the Player Deaf audiences use to watch interpreted video, the Studio interpreters record in, and the live events they interpret. Classroom is that same focus, turned toward the people learning the language.
Deaf and hearing people teach and learn sign language side by side, so signing is the default here, not an accessibility setting. Classroom is built around ASL programs first, and nothing in it assumes which signed language you teach.
Feedback that is signed, not just typed
Record the correction in sign. Students answer in sign. Typed notes stay available when they are the right tool.
A review surface made for watching signers
Freeze a frame and draw on it. Slow the playback and scrub to a single sign. Trim a take before it goes anywhere.
Built for a heavy grading week
Step through submissions, drop feedback, and publish without leaving the keyboard. Shortcuts are yours to remap.
Your plan, in three steps
Set it up once. Repeat every week of the term.
Set up your class
Post an assignment with a signed prompt, a due date, and your materials. Share a class code. Students join with it in minutes.
Students submit their signing
They record in the browser or upload a video, take as many takes as they need, trim, and send the one they are proud of.
Give feedback they can see
Review with feedback pinned to a moment or stretched across a phrase, freeze frames, and signed replies. Publish an assessment. Students answer in sign and the thread stays with the work.
What your term looks like
For you, for your students, and for the program. Every correction you give this week is watched, understood, and answered.
- Your feedback is signed, pinned to the second, and watched instead of skimmed.
- Students reply in sign, so you know whether the correction stuck before the next assignment.
- Rubrics, categories, and grades live beside the video. No second document, no second tab.
- Your best explanations are saved once and reused across sections and terms.
- Your department grades from shared rubrics, so feedback is consistent from one instructor to the next.
- Deaf and hearing teachers and students share one tool where signing is the default, not an accommodation.
What we promise
Students see only their own work
Students join a class, not your organization. Classmates never see each other's submissions, and playback links are signed and expire.
Nothing to install
Students record in a desktop browser or upload from a phone. You review in the browser with the keyboard.
Signing is the default
Prompts, feedback, replies, and assessments can all be signed. Captions and keyboard access run throughout, for Deaf and hearing users alike.
Everything a signing class needs, in one place
The tools a sign language teacher reaches for every week, built in rather than worked around.
Feedback on a moment or a whole phrase
Pin a note to one second or stretch it across the whole stretch of signing it applies to. Set how long it stays up, and hold the video while the student takes it in. Each one is marked as a correction, kudos, note, or question.
Freeze frame and draw
Stop on a handshape, draw on the frame, and attach it so the student sees exactly what you saw.
Signed replies and threads
You and your students answer each other in sign. Each conversation stays attached to the submission.
Prompts and class materials
Signed assignment prompts, class introductions, documents, and reference videos live with the class.
Rubrics, categories, and a gradebook
Build a rubric once and reuse it. Group feedback by category. Grades roll up per class.
Class codes and join links
Students join with a code or a link and see their own work and your feedback, nothing else.
Notifications and inbox
New submissions, published feedback, and replies arrive in an inbox, with an email digest if you want one.
Feedback library
Save the signed feedback you give most often and reuse it across students and terms.
Who Classroom serves
Anywhere a signed language is taught and student signing is assessed.
College ASL departments and interpreter training programs
Weekly signing assignments, expressive and receptive work, and portfolio review at the scale of a department, with feedback that respects how interpreting faculty teach.
High schools and schools for the Deaf
ASL as a world language, Deaf studies, and signing practice for Deaf and hearing students in the same class, with feedback every student can watch.
Online and community sign language programs
Courses taught over distance, community classes, and continuing education for working interpreters, wherever your students are.
Billed the way your program buys
Student passes, teacher seats, or one agreement for the department or the campus. Tell us how your school buys and we will quote it that way.
Students pay per term
A term pass per student, the way many programs already buy, with no per-video fees. Schools can sponsor seats instead.
Teachers pay per year
An annual seat per teacher keeps access between terms to plan, build rubrics, and reuse materials.
Department or campus agreement
One agreement covers every teacher and student on one invoice, sized to the program, so nobody collects from students one at a time.
Teaching lectures that need interpreting, or a signed campus announcement? That is the same platform. See SyncSigns for education.
See the difference in one assignment
Bring one signing assignment from your syllabus. We will run it through Classroom with you, from prompt to signed feedback, next to whatever you use today.
