Interpreting Skill Development III

Catalog description

This course extends on the concepts developed in INT 1201 and emphasizes self-awareness in determining interpreter suitability, appropriate selection of the most appropriate interpreting mode, and identification and advocacy for an interpreting team or other supports. Students will continue to focus on consecutive interpreting and transliterating skill development in monologues and interactions, with an increase in exposure to simultaneous interpreting and more advanced discourse situations. Observations and involvement within the Deaf community will aid in the application and analysis of linguistic, cultural and professional practice terminology. A component of service learning is included in this course.
