Developing and evaluating digital training materials for interpreting in refugeeNuč Blažič, Aleksandra (Avtor) Iacono, Katia (Avtor) Pöllabauer, Sonja (Avtor) Iacono, Katia (Lastnik avtorskih pravic) digital multimedia training materialsinterpreter educationpublic service interpretinginterpreting in refugee transit zonescrisis translationThe increase in migration to Europe over the last decade has spurred a growing demand for interpreting in reception and public service situations. Given this high demand language mediation in such contexts often requires the use of untrained interpreters. Interpreter education and awareness-raising, both among interpreters and users of interpreters, are thus important steps towards quality assurance and professionalisation. In this contribution, we present findings from a multi-step user study among interpreting students and novice practitioners. The participants evaluated the usefulness of digital training resources that were developed in the Erasmus+ project ReTrans (Working with Interpreters in Refugee Transit Zones). Semi-structured interviews provided valuable insight into the strengths and weaknesses of these resources, particularly regarding key aspects such as confidence-building, the balance between theoretical content and practical applicability, and overall usefulness. These findings will contribute to the further refinement of the materials for broader application in interpreter education.Znanstvena založba Filozofske fakultete Univerze v Ljubljani20262026-04-21 20:26:39Raziskovalni podatki97877slraziskovalni podatki se nanašajo na slovenski prostor na leto 2025 .raziskovalni podatki se nanašajo na slovenski prostor na leto 2025
