Offering a thorough exploration of the rapid advancements in technology development for interpreting, this book explores the effects of technology on the practice of interpreting, providing theoretical insights and practical applications.
The chapters underscore the interdisciplinary nature of interpreting in the digital age and cover a wide range of topics from online learning environments for trainee interpreters and ethical considerations to the application of specific digital tools in language interpretation. It covers the application of advanced language models in interpreting, the pedagogical implications of technology in interpreter training as well as the cognitive aspects of interpreting in a technologically advanced environment. The authors integrate insights from technology, linguistics, education and cognitive science to provide a comprehensive understanding of how technology influences interpreting. This interdisciplinary approach allows the book to provide a holistic view of the field, making it a valuable resource for readers from various disciplines interested in the interplay between technology and interpreting. This book serves as a platform for discussing and debating new thoughts on the teaching and training of interpreting and the delivery of interpreting services.
Delving into the new paradigms of interpreting studies that have emerged in the wake of technological advancements, this book will be invaluable to students studying interpreting or related fields, researchers investigating the impact of technology on interpreting and practitioners in the field who are keen to understand and leverage the latest technological advancements.
