This edited book features contributions from interpreter and translator educators globally, in which they discuss changes to teaching, assessment and practice as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The chapters provide a comprehensive picture of educators' responses to challenges and opportunities. The book will be of interest to students, researchers and educators, as well as government language policymakers and stakeholders of translation and interpreting agencies.
"The volume is a comprehensive account of how community translation and interpreting (T&I) education (in formal tertiary settings) and training (non-degree or short courses) reacted to the COVID-19 pandemic, with contributors from all over the world covering both signed and spoken languages. ... I strongly recommend this edited volume for any T&I educators and trainers who are trying to take stock of and draw lessons from the COVID-19 pandemic and are looking for insights from all over the world." (Natacha Niemants, Interpreting and Society, Vol. 4 (1), March, 2024)
"This volume will do much to stimulate thought on the road ahead for individuals, institutions, and governments in maintaining T&I standards, and in promoting innovation in the coming years, and it rightly recognises Australia's significant role in this."
