Collaboration in translation practices : a course design for peer feedback in translation training

Author

Abstract
In response to collaboration being an issue on the agenda of many a professional translation organization in recent years, a fair number of translation trainers have argued for innovative approaches which would enhance the trainees' collaboration skills (e.g. Gambier 2012; Huertas Barros 2011; Kenny 2008; Kiraly 2000/2014; O’Brien 2011). Against a background of more initiatives for collaboration in the Dutch-speaking translation industry, the design of a collaborative translation exercise at Ghent University will be described. This exercise involved students not only collaborating with each other in class, but also at home online either with each other or with students from North Dakota State University at Fargo. Amongst other items, the article will cover learning outcomes, preparatory exercises, an introduction to peer feedback, and a description of class activities. Readers are invited to share their comments or accounts of their own experiences with the writer.
