Current Course Description: INT 442/442L: Theory & Process of Interpreting V/Lab (3/1) Interpreting V (3) This course concentrates on the successful interpretation of texts within a simultaneous interpreting framework. Students incorporate linguistic and functional text analyses into simultaneous interpretations, work with both recorded material and guest presenters. Students are expected to produce accurate and fluent simultaneous interpretations of increasingly difficult monologues, dialogues, interviews, and group discussions. INT 442L Theory and Process of Interpreting V Lab (1) This interpreting lab, to be taken concurrent¬ly with INT 442, offers students an opportu-nity to apply the theories and to practice the techniques introduced in the Interpreting V class. In this lab, students practice simultane¬ous interpretations of increasingly difficult monologues, dialogues, interviews and group discussions.

New Course Description: INT 442: Theory & Process of Interpreting Practicum (4-credits) Students engage in a practicum with consumers in no risk situations. To complement the practicum experience, students will engage in regular demand-control schema supervision of their interpreting work throughout the term. Pre-requisite: Completion of INT 441 with a ¿B¿ or better.

Justification for changing the course (e.g. alignment with other institutions, program revision, etc.): This course has become a practicum in which students work outside the classroom independently in no risk situations. The name change reflects this reality. In addition, we have taken this Course + Lab model and modified it to be a 4-credit courses to allow for more dedicated time in the practicum site and in the classroom with the instructor for individual and group feedback.

Students/Program affected: ASL/English Interpreting Program majors.
