1. To introduce students to concrete translation tasks where the theoretical and applied knowledge acquired so far and simultaneously to this module will be put to use.
2. To produce informed and reasoned judgements and discussion on the processes and products of translation.
3. To produce translated output coherent with informed choices, working from their language speciality into English/Welsh and vice-versa.

This module comprises six translation workshops designed for students to achieve as broad a perspective as possible on the practice of translation in their language specialty. More specifically, this module gives students the opportunity to discuss issues in translation practice with specific reference to their own translations, and allows them to produce translations in conditions that encourage and facilitate reflection on the process and product of translation. The discussions in workshops will inform the students practice in assembling an individual translation portfolio. Languages available include English, Welsh, German, French, Italian and Spanish.

Language-specific course materials are made available to the students through translation exercise dossiers that each language tutor prepares in advance.
