Consecutive interpreting (B language) -Spanish - level 1 3200-M1-3TKOBH1
The aim of this course is to introduce students to the basic notions in consecutive interpreting. At the beginning of the course the students learn about the communication model of consecutive intepreting and identify the processes within the model. Subsequently the students begin their practical workshops. Initially they train with short fragments (from 15 to 120 seconds) which they memorise and interpret without any notes. At this stage they learn to memorise the structure and the logic of the text. Moreover, they practise their paraphrasing skills in both A and B languages. The following part of the course introduces note-taking in consecutive interpreting, with techniques used to render the structure/logic and the contents of the text. Subsequently the students begin to practise longer texts (from 1 to 4-minutes-long) with note-taking. Throughout the entire course the instructor presents practical information on the profession of the consecutive interpreter and the interpreter’s work ethics as well as the specificity of the profession & the market. The attending students can practise their practical interpreting skills but also expand their general knowledge and the knowledge of their language A (Polish) and B (Spanish).
Student’s time investment:
60 class hours;
30 hrs preparation;
10 hrs final assignment or test preparation.
In sum: 100 hrs, corresponding to 4 ECTS.
FORMS OF WORK:
If classroom learning is impossible, the workshop will be conducted with the help of distance communication tools, most probably Google Meet and others recommended by the University.
