ITR 221 - Interpretation Skills II

3 credits

This course builds on ITR 121 in order to further develop consecutive interpreting, note-taking, and sight translation skills; it also introduces basic simultaneous interpreting skills. Practice material includes increasingly longer and more complex interactions from a range of settings, including medical, educational, and legal. In addition to interpreting and sight translation practice, coursework includes relevant theoretical concepts, including interactional and social aspects of dialogue interpreting; exploration and application of the codes of ethics; topic preparation; and development of self-monitoring and self-assessment abilities.
