Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

Students acquire profound knowledge of dialogue interpreting in the areas of education, health and social service settings. They understand the special characteristics of the various settings and the related translation requirements. Students develop translation strategies and skills to cope with challenges in the various settings.

Method: In practical interpreting exercises in realistic dialogic situations students apply various interpreting techniques (including chuchotage, sight translation, conversation techniques) with subsequent reflection, peer feedback and feedback provided by the teachers. Students prepare for simulated interpreting assignments in various settings, research content and structure for the relevant conversation situations as well as terminology and read recommended literature.

Assessment and permitted materials

Active participation in all course units (2 absences allowed), reflection, peer feedback and feedback provided by the teachers.

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria
