MAKE YOUR LANGUAGE RELEVANT!

Students complain about having to take a language class They do not see how languages will help them beyond the classroom. Other countries teach 2-3 foreign languages and value language learning. How to combat this? ISSUES IN LANGUAGE CLASSES

Interpreter on the phone (Language Line) Consecutive interpreter (law, medical) Simultaneous interpreter (conferences $$$) Literary translator: prose, children, fictional, non- fictional Technical translation (websites, documents0 TYPES OF CAREERS

Irias’ suggestion/belief: In addition to communicative exercises, translation should be a focus. One exercise per chapter, starting level 1. We want students to train their brains to think in the target language. What better way? Teach them how to translate. Important: Teach them translation as a profession TRANSLATION

Translation games: Hot potato ‘do you know’ with whiteboards Translation teams: writer, dictionary referencer, grammar guru and runner. Switch jobs every 2 successful translations. LOWER LEVELS
