Role-Space: You’ve Heard the Term But What Does It Mean?

Facilitator: Christine Monikowski

Understand the concept of Role-Space and apply it to our work in the educational setting. Although this online community specifically targets educational interpreting settings, this information can be applied to interpreters working in a variety of settings.

Discourse Analysis: Cues, Context & Communication

Facilitator: Betsy Winston

Understanding discourse and discourse analysis is essential for interpreters, interpreter educators, and anyone who communicates! Communication and interpreting are, after all, nothing more nor less than discourse analysis in action. Explore discourse as language in use, focusing on four major themes in discourse analysis: 1) emerging meaning; 2) interaction; 3) choices and decisions; and 4) context.
