Cíle předmětu
The aim of the course, which takes up to a more advanced level methods used in Developing Translation Skills (AJ19024), is to provide students with an opportunity to cultivate some of their key translator competences while working on translation of various types of non-literary texts, with focus on the process of translation and its reflection and feedback. The course uses the framework of formal education to transmit contents typical of this setting (conceptual apparatus, findings of research in translation training and the process of translation), but to a great extent also for activating non-formal and informal learning of students, both being inevitable to their successful work in the translating profession. Students will set their individual objectives in the beginning of the course and we will jointly look for ways of achieving them. The course is largely based on the use of feedback, both from the teacher and from fellow-students.
