Situated Learning is generally understood as a context-dependent
approach to translator and interpreter training under which
learners are exposed to real-life and/or highly simulated
collaborative work environments and tasks, both inside and outside
the classroom. Ultimately, Situated Learning seeks to enhance
learners' capacity to think and act like professionals. This book
sets out to gauge the extent to which different factors influence
the implementation of Situated Learning models in various teaching
and learning contexts. It presents an understanding of Situated
Learning that goes beyond previous interpretations of this notion,
traditionally dominated by the discussion of pedagogical practices
in authentic, i.e. real-world, or semi-authentic professional
settings. This wider remit of Situated Learning encompasses
previously underrepresented contextual factors pertaining to
translation traditions, historical trends, community beliefs and
customs, socio-economic constraints, market conditions,
institutional practices, budgetary issues, or resource
availability. The pedagogical considerations of these key aspects
make this book particularly useful for both novice and seasoned
teachers of translation and interpreting with an interest in
informed practical advice on how to implement the principles of
Situated Learning in collaborative teaching and learning
environments that seek to promote translators' and/or interpreters'
professional competence. This book was originally published as a
special issue of The Interpreter and Translator Trainer.
