Description:

This course builds on TRIN 1033 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. In order to enroll in this course, students must have received a rating of Advanced High or higher on the American College Teachers of Foreign Languages (ACTFL) Oral Proficiency Interview (OPI) in their weaker language; advanced-mid is accepted on a case-by-case basis and requires a commitment to further study of the weaker language. Prerequisite(s): TRIN 1021, TRIN 1032, and TRIN 1033 with grades of C or higher and instructor consent.
