Interpreter Education And Training
In Yemen: A Case Study.
PhD thesis, Universiti Sains Malaysia.
Abstract
Pendidikan dan latihan merupakan dua cabang pembelajaran; pendidikan berkait rapat
dengan pemerolehan ilmu pengetahuan, dan pembangunan intelek, manakala latihan
pula bertujuan memperoleh kemahiran khusus bagi melaksanakan tugasan yang diberikan
dengan sebaik mungkin. Sebagaimana bidang-bidang lain, pendidikan dan latihan diperlukan
dalam pengikhtisasan penterjemah dan jurubahasa. Program pendidikan dan latihan
jurubahasa bermatlamat mengembangkan kemahiran dan pengetahuan yang diperlukan
untuk menginterpretasi, dan untuk menyemai kesedaran terhadap tatalaku jurubahasa yang
baik dan memantapkan keahlian sebagai pengamal dalam profesion ini. Di Yaman, pendidikan
dan latihan jurubahasa ditawarkan menerusi satu atau dua kursus dalam program
terjemahan. Tiada program yang direka khusus untuk melatih bakal jurubahasa.
Education and training are two facets of learning; education is about gaining knowledge
and developing intellect, whereas training is undertaken for the purpose of acquiring
a specific skill to perform adequately a given task. Education and training are necessary
for the professionalisation of translators and interpreters, as it is the case with other disciplines.
The aims of interpreter education and training programmes are to develop the skills
and knowledge required to interpret, and to develop an awareness of suitable conduct and
membership as practitioners of a profession. In Yemen, interpreter education and training
is offered as part of translation programmes in the form of two or three courses. There are
no programmes designed specifically to train interpreters want-to-be. The aim of this study
is to draw a complete picture of interpreter education and training in the Yemeni context
which covers major educational issues including curriculum components, teaching and
learning practices, and assessment procedures. This broad aim is achieved by conducting
a case study of interpreter education and training offered at the University of Science and
Technology which is the first university in Yemen to offer interpreter education and training
at a bachelor’s degree level. To answer research questions, a mixed-method approach
is adopted for the purpose of collecting data from different sources, and converging these
data via triangulation.
