Download or read book Team Interpreting As Collaboration and Interdependence written by Jack Hoza and published by . This book was released on 2021-10 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about best practices in team interpreting. This comprehensive volume provides practical strategies for how interpreters who work together in teams can get "in the zone" as a team and achieve their best work, investigates team interpreters' place (role-space) in interpreted interaction, and explores their place as linguistic and cultural brokers in the community. The book also proposes a new, expanded framework for team interpreting, the steps of which form the acronym TEAM TIPS. This framework posits that interpreter teams not only work in collaboration (shared cooperation) and interdependence (reliance on each other), but that teams are most successful when they use a community approach to interpreting and teaming -- an approach that has existed in the Deaf community for many years and yet has been largely unrecognized.This greatly expanded volume replaces a previous book by the same name, but without the newly added subtitle A Return to a Community Approach, and it is based on three studies conducted by the author as well as current literature on team interpreting. All the chapters of the first edition have been included here, but have been greatly updated and expanded, and six new chapters have been added. In fact, two-thirds of this book is made up of new material.This volume details how a variety of teams in the signed language-spoken language interpreting field can be most effective:?Deaf interpreter-hearing interpreter teams,?hearing interpreter-hearing interpreter teams,?Deaf interpreter-Deaf interpreter teams, and?experienced interpreter-novice interpreter teams.The book includes an extensive Glossary that defines all key terms used in the book, A List of Abbreviations and Acronyms, and Thought Questions that appear at the end of each chapter. Overall, this volume seeks to provide the reader with a roadmap to an enhanced view of team interpreting that includes participants as part of the team and highlights what is needed to return to a community approach to team interpreting.

Download or read book 100 Years of Conference Interpreting written by Kilian G. Seeber and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2021-04-20 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Woodrow Wilson, David Lloyd George, Vittorio Emanuele Orlando and Georges Clemenceau met in Versailles in January 1919, they ushered in the modern era of multilateral diplomacy and—perhaps inadvertently—laid the foundation for a new profession. Indeed, communication among these statesmen was only possible thanks to the first conference interpreters. For the following 100 years, these interpreters would become a permanent fixture at all international multilateral conferences. As we celebrate one century of conference interpreting, this volume takes stock of some of the most important milestones throughout the history of this exceptional profession and looks at its future at a time when the global COVID-19 pandemic has transformed the world of international meetings. Thanks to its refreshingly interactive format, this volume gives a voice to different stakeholders in the world of conference interpreting today, including practitioners, managers, researchers and trainers. The result is a surprisingly candid and critical discussion of some of the most hotly debated topics in the world of conference interpreting.

Download or read book Enhancing the Effectiveness of Team Science written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2015-07-15 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The past half-century has witnessed a dramatic increase in the scale and complexity of scientific research. The growing scale of science has been accompanied by a shift toward collaborative research, referred to as "team science." Scientific research is increasingly conducted by small teams and larger groups rather than individual investigators, but the challenges of collaboration can slow these teams' progress in achieving their scientific goals. How does a team-based approach work, and how can universities and research institutions support teams? Enhancing the Effectiveness of Team Science synthesizes and integrates the available research to provide guidance on assembling the science team; leadership, education and professional development for science teams and groups. It also examines institutional and organizational structures and policies to support science teams and identifies areas where further research is needed to help science teams and groups achieve their scientific and translational goals. This report offers major public policy recommendations for science research agencies and policymakers, as well as recommendations for individual scientists, disciplinary associations, and research universities. Enhancing the Effectiveness of Team Science will be of interest to university research administrators, team science leaders, science faculty, and graduate and postdoctoral students.

These frameworks help readers track the various skills or strategies to use for distinctive evaluation situations. In addition, the authors provide explicit advice about how to solve specific evaluation problems. Numerous examples throughout the text bring interactive practice to life in a variety of settings.
