(a)	Use and reflect on a variety of metacognitive strategies* to enhance language learning, such as: make a plan in advance about how to approach a language learning task; reflect on the communication process, including attending and signing, by checking copied signing for accuracy and monitoring own sign production to check for persistent errors; or, keep a learning log to evaluate own performance and identify which language learning strategies are most effective.
(b)	Demonstrate and reflect on a variety of interactive and affective strategies* to enhance language learning, such as: work with a friend to identify patterns and relationships in signs; summarize the point reached in a discussion to help focus the talk and ask follow-up questions to check for understanding; or, recognize facial expressions as an essential component of ASL.
(c)	Practise and reflect on a variety of interpretive strategies* to enhance language learning, such as: view a variety of video recordings to ensure exposure to regional, cultural and gender signing variations; use knowledge of the context to aid comprehension and ask for things to be repeated in order to understand complex ideas; or, mentally prepare questions and make predictions about new information based on prior knowledge and personal experience.
