1. Describe the differences between how hearing interpreters use eye gaze, pausing and head nods in direct verses fed interpretations
2. Identify difference in how fingerspelling and expansions are used in fed and direct interpretations
3. Understand how clarifications and corrections internal and external to the team to minimize skewing and ommissions
4. Describe strategies for effectively pre-conference as a team before the interpreting task begins
5. Identify potential barriers to effective teaming
