Description
New Perspectives on Assessment in Translator Education by Elsa Huertas Barros and Juliet Vine explores the role of assessment in translator education, moving beyond traditional measures of learning to consider how assessment informs and shapes the learning process. This book delves into current practices and changing attitudes towards assessment, examining its application in translation processes as well as its impact on quality assurance. The authors investigate various aspects of assessment, including competence-based evaluation, formative and summative assessment, and the challenges of assessing subtitling for the deaf and hard of hearing. The findings of this book contribute to existing theoretical frameworks and offer valuable insights for course planning and design in translation education. A valuable resource for translation educators, trainers, researchers, practitioners, and associated professionals, New Perspectives on Assessment in Translator Education provides a comprehensive understanding of assessment in translator education, shedding light on its complexities and nuances.
