Translating Change (eBook, PDF)

Translating Change explores and analyses the impact of changes in society, culture and language on the translation and interpreting process and product. It looks at how social attitudes, behaviours and values change over time, how languages respond to these changes, how these changes are reflected in the processing and production of translations and how technological change and economic uncertainty in the wake of events such as the COVID-19 pandemic and Brexit affect the translation market. The authors examine trends in language change in English, French, German, Italian and Spanish. The highly topical approach to social, cultural and language change is predominantly synchronic and pragmatic, based on tracking and analysing language changes and trends as they have developed and continue to do so. This is combined with an innovative section on developing transferable translation-related skills, including writing and rewriting, editing, abstracting, transcreation and summary writing in view of a perceived need to expand the skills portfolio of translators in a changing market and at the same time to maximise translation quality. Each chapter features Pause for Thought/activity boxes to encourage active reader participation or reflection. With exercises, discussion questions, guided further reading throughout and a glossary of key terms, this innovative textbook is key reading for both students and translators or interpreters, in training and in practice.

Being the Change: Lessons and Strategies to Teach Social Comprehension , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 326min

Topics such as race, gender, politics, religion, and sexuality are part of our students' lives, yet when these subjects are brought up to school teachers, they often struggle with how to respond. How do we create learning conditions where kids can ask the questions they want to ask, say the things they are thinking, and have tough conversations? How can we be proactive and take steps for engaging in the types of conversations where risk is high but the payoff could be even greater?Being the Change is based on the idea that people can develop skills and habits to serve them in the comprehension of social issues. Sara K. Ahmed identifies and unpacks the skills of social comprehension, providing teachers with tools and activities that help students make sense of themselves and the world as they navigate relevant topics in today's society.Each chapter includes clear, transferable lessons and practical strategies that help students learn about a targeted social comprehension concept. From exploring identity and diversity to understanding and addressing biases and microaggressions, Sara demonstrates how to address real issues honestly in the classroom while honoring and empowering students.Dealing with social issues is uncomfortable, and often messy, but you can build habitats of trust where kids and adults can make their thinking visible and cultivate empathy; where expression, identity, and social literacy matter. There is no magic formula for making the world a better place. It happens in the moments we embrace discomfort and have candid conversations."I am convinced that every class of kids I work with is filled with change agents who will make this world the one we teach toward. I believe that my students will carry the work of doing right by this world into their own lives. I'll bet you believe this about your kids, too." (Sara K. Ahmed) ungekürzt. Language: English.

Process Automation in a Medium-Sized Mechanical Engineering Company. Development of a Systematic Approach for the Identification of Potentials (eBook, PDF)

Master's Thesis from the year 2020 in the subject Engineering - Industrial Engineering and Management, grade: 1,3, University of South Wales, language: English, abstract: In this thesis, a transferable concept is developed to identify possible automation potentials in existing processes in small and medium-sized enterprises, taking into account the following research questions: How does the existing process of machine labeling work? What are the weak points of the current process of machine labeling? How can possible weaknesses be eliminated and, in the best case, automated? Can the developed concept be transferred to other processes? This in turn raises the central research question of the scientific paper: How can a structured procedure for the identification of optimization potentials as a basis for process automation look like and what has to be considered when applying it? To answer these research questions, existing concepts in the relevant literature are examined with regard to their advantages and disadvantages for the planned application. From this, a procedure divided into three main steps is developed, which offers different methodologies for the steps to be worked on. The process to be investigated and the desired primary goal of automation determine which of the methods should be used. Subsequently, the practical suitability of the developed concept is tested on the given example process of machine labeling of a medium-sized mechanical engineering company. The results of the exemplary application show that it is possible to develop a clearly structured and easy to handle concept for a medium-sized company, which recognizes the weak points and optimization potentials.
