Abstract

This study attempted to understand students’ perceptions of the feedback provided by teachers of the sight and bilateral interpreting course online. Using a student-centered perspective, we administered a questionnaire-based survey to 95 undergraduate students. We investigated issues related to the effectiveness of online feedback at the cognitive level (understanding and using the feedback) and psychological level (affective reactions), including challenges associated with the delivery method or the nature of feedback and students’ expectations. Research findings indicated that students have different preferences, needs, and emotional reactions to online feedback. The study recommends teaching remote interpreting to keep pace with the technological requirements and consider the different variables affecting the feedback process. Based on the literature, we proposed a model to develop students’ capacity to understand and act on teacher’s feedback in the interpreting classroom and bridge the gap between teachers’ beliefs and students’ expectations about ‘good feedback.’ The best lesson learned from this study is that online teaching and feedback are valuable and satisfy the emotional needs of some students. Therefore, we suggest using a blended model for interpreting teaching and feedback methods in the near future.

在线教授视觉和双边口译

本研究试图了解学生对在线视觉与双边口译课程教师所提供的反馈的看法。采用以学生为中心的观点，我们对95名本科生进行了问卷调查。我们在认知层面(理解和使用反馈)和心理层面(情感反应)调查了与在线反馈有效性相关的问题，包括与传递方法或反馈性质和学生期望相关的挑战。研究结果表明，学生对网络反馈有不同的偏好、需求和情绪反应。该研究建议远程口译教学应与技术要求保持同步，并考虑影响反馈过程的不同变量。在文献的基础上，我们提出了一个模型来培养学生在口译课堂上理解教师反馈并采取行动的能力，并弥合教师对“良好反馈”的信念与学生期望之间的差距。“从这项研究中得到的最好的教训是，在线教学和反馈是有价值的，满足了一些学生的情感需求。”因此，我们建议在不久的将来使用混合模型进行口译教学和反馈方法。
