Interpreting Practice 2 - TRAN822

This unit is designed to further develop students' interpreting skills so that they demonstrate advanced strategies in core interpreting techniques, such as listening skills, text analysis, memory retention, note-taking and oral translation skills. Students engage in reading, research and practice to develop strong critical analysis and reflective capabilities in relation to their interpreting practice and academic work.
The unit consists of lectures and tutorials. Lectures on interpreting theory, such as basic principles and note-taking techniques, are offered at the beginning, followed by subject-specific lectures such as environment and healthcare during the semester. Tutorials for language-specific groups are aimed at enhancing students' interpreting skills through hands-on practice.
