Calibrating Courtroom Communication

0.9 CEUs, PS Legal

Memory and retention are fundamental functions for producing an interpreted message. Given that most interpreters train and practice using simultaneous interpreting techniques, we seldom actively practice ways to improve the memory and retention necessary for successful consecutive interpreting. This workshop will look at the following components of consecutive interpreting: its history, foundational skills related to memory and listening, notetaking techniques, and application of these methods to the work we encounter in the legal field.
