Abstract




Çevrimiçi öğrenme, bireylerin istedikleri zaman, istedikleri yerde, kendi hızlarına göre çalışmalarını ve öğrenmelerini sağlayan, dolayısıyla öğrenmeye esneklik kazandıran bir yöntemdir. Genellikle yapılandırılmış bir öğrenme programı kapsamında gerçekleşir. Özellikle yaşam boyu öğrenme kavramının yükseköğretim kurumlarında yer bulmaya başlamasıyla birlikte, üniversiteler her yaşta ve özellikte bireye çevrimiçi ortamlarda veya kampüste örgün ve yaygın eğitim olanağı sunmaktadır. Bu çalışmada üniversitelerin sunduğu çevrimiçi öğrenme olanakları ve özellikle İngilizce ve Türkçeyi iyi bilen bireylerin çeviri piyasasına girebilme talepleri dikkate alınarak yabancı dil becerisini kanıtlamış yetişkin öğrenenler için – çevrimiçi öğrenmeye dayalı – bir sertifika programı önerisi sunulmaktadır. Türkiye’de iki dili iyi bilen bir bireyin çeviri piyasasına girmesinin önünde yasal bir engel yoktur. Bu durum, işveren ve müşteriler açısından bakıldığında, çevirmenin güvenilirliğini etkilemektedir. Ancak mütercim-tercümanlık bölümü veya yabancı dillerle ilgili diğer bölümlerden alınan diplomalar çevir- men yeterliliği için kanıt oluşturmaktadır. Çeviri piyasasına adım atmak isteyip bu bölümlerden mezun olmayan, dil yeterliliğini kanıtlamış bireylerin girdiği sertifika arayışı için üniversitelerdeki mütercim- tercümanlık bölümleri, tercihen bir çeviri/çevirmen derneğiyle iş birliği içinde, çözüm sunabilir. Bu çalışmada yabancı dil yeterliliğini kanıtlayabilen bireylere yönelik çevrimiçi çeviri sertifikası programı önerisi sunulmaktadır. ADDIE modeline dayalı bu öneri çevrimiçi öğrenme programına yönelik analiz, tasarım, geliştirme, uygulama ve değerlendirme aşamalarından oluşmaktadır.

Designing Language-Specific Online Translation Courses: A Proposal

Abstract








Online learning is a mode of delivery that allows flexibility in learning for individuals to study with-
out restrictions on pace, time, and location with the support of a structured learning program.
The incorporation of the lifelong learning concept into higher education has prompted universities to
provide online and on-campus programs in the form of both formal and non-formal education to cater
to individuals of diverse backgrounds across multiple age ranges. Given the availability of university
online programs and the growing demand for online translation courses and/or programs particu
larly from potential learners with proven language proficiency, this paper proposes an online learning
model intended for adult learners with proficiency in English and Turkish that will lead to a professional certificate. The current system in Turkey does not provide sufficient credibility of translators
in the eyes of employers and clients unless individuals hold an academic degree in translation or languages. Thus, it would be more beneficial for individuals having a good command of English and Turkish languages to seek a professional certificate granted by a higher-education institution, preferably
in cooperation with a translators’ association, to enter the market or to earn credibility on the translation market. In response to the demand from individuals with proficiency in two languages, this study
proposes an online course drawing on the ADDIE model, which provides a thorough framework for
instructional design. This paper elaborates on five core elements of this model namely analysis, de-
sign, development, implementation, and evaluation for teaching translation to adult learners online.
