Methodologies Description
Workshop Students in small and medium-sized groups will be responsible to complete several supervised tasks (individual and group translation practices, presentations, debates, problem solving, etc).
Mixed objective/subjective test Students will have to complete a final exam in June in order to test each student's translation competence.
Guest lecture / keynote speech The professors will introduce each topic with an oral exposition to discuss the most relevant theoretical concepts and their potential and factual application in practice.
Supervised projects Students are required to complete several supervised activities related to translation. These activities include group and individual work, as well as classroom and homework exercises.
Introductory activities During the first class of the semester, students will complete several activities related to language and translation. These quizzes will help professors to determine each student's linguistic competence and personal interests within translation.
Critical bibliographical A critical bibliographic review implies the critical reading of a particular book, article, dissertation or conference paper. Students will have to read the work, analyse its content and provide a critical reading in relation to other published works on the same topic. A critical review is not just a summary of the selected work or its analysis. The true value of these reviews lies in its scientific significance according to the reviewer's opinion, as well as in its connection with other significant works from the same field or its connections to the reviewer's experiences.
Oral presentation Students are required to prove their oral skills with an oral presentation that will be delivered over the semester.
Workbook Specific readings on translation.
