Innovations in Translator, Interpreter and Localizer Education

The MONTEREY FORUM, launched in 2007, provides a venue to discuss new trends and issues in translator, interpreter and localizer (TIL) education. Following the success of the conferences held in 2007 and 2009, we are pleased to announce that the third MONTEREY FORUM will take place on April 8 and 9, 2011, at the Monterey Institute of International Studies in California.

The theme of the MONTEREY FORUM 2011 is Innovations in Translator, Interpreter and Localizer Education. Technological advances and rapid changes in economic, social and political conditions have paved the way for new developments in the practice of translation, interpreting and localization.

The MONTEREY FORUM 2011 will review innovations found in the current curriculum and syllabus design and implementation in the real or virtual classroom, with a view to matching the evolving expectations of the market. During our discussion the goal will be to learn from innovations implemented by TIL educators around the world in addressing new challenges and requirements.

TIL educators are invited to contribute a paper (a 20-minute presentation followed by a 10-minute discussion) on their teaching practices. 

We are especially interested in approaches to

• incorporating translation technology into your translation classes

• teaching revising, editing and MT post-editing skills

• designing and delivering on-line courses

• introducing different modalities of consecutive interpreting

• developing simultaneous interpreting skills into one’s B language

• bringing authenticity into classroom exercises

• blending theory and practice in TIL classes

• designing curriculum in response to the new requirements of the market

• building effective assessment into the curriculum

Please submit your abstract (no more than 300 words) with your name, affiliation and contact information to montereyforum2011@miis.edu  by November 15, 2010. Notification of acceptance will be sent by December 15, 2010. Program details will be announced at a later date.
