Course Description
Intended Outcomes for the course
Upon completion of the course students should be able to:
- Given a specific setting and a source language message, produce a simultaneous interpretation of all the main ideas and some supporting details of the message.
Course Activities and Design
Students will perform simultaneous interpretations on topics common to specific fields of interpreting. Students will discuss and demonstrate best practices for each field of interpreting. Students will continue to practice concentration, anticipation, prediction, use of prior knowledge and knowledge and new information, and memory techniques. Students will continue to learn self-assessment and peer-review techniques to further become aware of patterns in their own skill development.
Outcome Assessment Strategies
Students will be evaluated through formal evaluations of ASL-to-English simultaneous interpretations and English-to-ASL simultaneous interpretations. Students will be expected to complete self-assessments of their own work.
Given a source language message, produce an interpretation of all the main ideas and some supporting details of the message. The interpretation must meet the following criteria:
- Each sentence must be complete and grammatically correct.
- Each sentence must be equivalent to the presenter's message.
- All sentences must be congruent in light of the presenter's intent and the message as a whole. (Gish, S. (1993) Practice Guidelines, used by permission)
