How I make flash'cards' for British Sign Language.

First up I use Anki and make basic flashcards, however the difference is on one side I have gifs of the signs being done. Of course for grammar cards I make regular cards with a question on one side and the explanation on the other, but for the rest it's gifs.

But how do I get my gifs? Simple, I make them! I use a free app called ScreenToGif, it comes with a built in screen recorder and editor for making gifs. I simply record videos of the signs being done, trim, save them and then put them into the flashcards as I make them.

But here's where you have to be careful, the videos you use, you need to make sure they're reliable as not all signing videos you'll come across are from teachers or people who actually use BSL and aren't just learning or worse, making it up (yes sadly those exist). You want to make sure they're good sources of information and of course, double check it's the sign language you're actually learning as there are hundreds of different Sign languages.

Here's some of the resources I use: (no links because tumblr will throttle the post and I want people to be able to find this post)

BrightBSL (app and website, paid for but often has discounts around the new year)

British-Sign (official website, I'm recording the gifs in the course I'm doing which is cheap too!)
