Auslan Interpreting Practice - TRAN869
The unit focuses on the practice of being an interpreter, both the practice of interpreting between English and Auslan, and the professional and ethical practice of interpreters. Students undertake interpreting skills practice in predominantly dialogic/ interactive settings. Various interpreting strategies are explored, which interpreters can use to facilitate effective communication management. Students will be expected to apply theoretical knowledge gleaned from the unit 'TRAN821 Interpreting Techniques' to the critical analysis of their interpreting skills and to interpreting decisions made by other interpreters. The course will explore various case studies in line with discussions of theoretical perspectives on ethical behaviour.
