Course content
TEGN2007 builds on TEGN2004. Here we will focus on the interpreter's professional practice and the interpreter's role space and different roles. An important theme is how the interpreter's role space has been affected by changes in society over time. We look at and reflect on how interpreting and interpreters influence communication situations, for example how participants in an interpreted situation can come to appraise each other based on the interpreter's linguistic repertoire, gender, age, dialect, ethnicity, knowledge and skills. We will also continue to study interpreting theory and descriptions of the interpreting process. A central aim for TEGN2007 is that the student develops the ability to reflect on their own professional development, learns how to give feedback to colleagues, and understands the importance of contributing to the development of the profession.
