New Perspectives on Assessment in Translator Education

New Perspectives on Assessment in Translator Education

This book focuses on new perspectives on assessment in translator and interpreting education and suggests that assessment is not only a measure of learning (i. e. assessment ‘of’ learning) but also part of the learning process (i. e. assessment ‘for’ learning and assessment ‘as’ learning). To this end the book explores the current and changing practices of the role and nature of assessment not only in terms of the products but also the processes of translation. It includes empirical studies which examine competence-based assessment and quality in translation and interpreting education both at undergraduate and postgraduate level. This includes studies and proposals on formative and summative assessment in a wide range of educational contexts as well as contributions about relatively unexplored research areas such as quality assurance and assessment in subtitling for the D/deaf and the hard of hearing and how closely translation programmes fit the reality of professional practice. The findings of this book lend support to existing theoretical frameworks and inform course planning and design in translation education. As such it will be a valuable resource for translation educators trainers and researchers translation and interpreting practitioners and associated professionals. This book was originally published as a special issue of The Interpreter and Translator Trainer. | New Perspectives on Assessment in Translator Education

It provides an examination of various terms and definitions in use and a critical exploration of current UK policies. The author brings a wealth of many years’ experience as a family carer independent consultant and trainer to demonstrate the significant changes that a person-centred specialised therapeutic and incremental approach can make to an individual’s life. Advances in medical science mean more than ever people with (PIMD) are growing into adulthood. What is this experience like for an adult who needs support in all aspects of their life?

Within one-size-fits-all service planning this focus means there is less capacity to meet their life-long specialist complex and individualised needs. Understanding Profound and Intellectual and Multiple Disabilities in Adults is essential reading for anyone who is involved in the lives of adults with profound intellectual and multiple disabilities whether as a researcher student carer or policy-maker. | Understanding Profound Intellectual and Multiple Disabilities in Adults
