I am trying to find out how translation is taught today.
From what I gather from my masters' students, their experience as undergraduate students, in translation classes, is not very different from mine, more than 30 years ago.
It seems that the teaching of translation is not using the possibility of interactive online exercices.
I would be very grateful if you could tell me whether you introduced computers, the internet or platforms such as Moodle (or any other) in the teaching of translation. What kind of exercices if any, do you find useful to teach translation?
Your answers will help me develop a proposal for the following conference:
Thank you

Moodle is a learning platform designed to provide educators, administrators and learners with a single robust, secure and integrated system to create personalised learning environments.for Example Catalyst IT Ltd Australia:
Catalyst are a global group of open source software specialists with teams in the UK, Australia and New Zealand that have contributed to the success of Moodle since 2004. We offer a full suite of Moodle services from front-end consulting through custom feature development to managed hosting, including migration to and deployment in cloud infrastructure.
Thank you for this suggestion.
The service you recommend would probably be able to help me, unfortunately I have no budget for my project so I doubt Catalyst would help me for free. I am indeed using Moodle and trying to figure out how best to use various functionalities of the platform to teach translation for beginners.
You are looking for interactive applications that can help your students engage with your activities in the classroom - have you heard of or tried Quizlet?
Check these out: https://quizlet.com/750710/transcription-and-translation-flash-cards/
We used quizlet for Foundation ESL students and it worked wonderfully. It's a gamified learning tool and the impact is quite loud if used right.
If you are looking for interactive classroom applications, you can take Moodle off the list. Moodle is complex if you are just looking for applications for classroom engagement.
