{"title":"Out of the frying pan into the fire: The impact of the pandemic on the listening environment of public service interpreters in Finland as experienced by interpreters themselves","authors":"Anu Viljanmaa","doi":"10.37536/fitispos-ij.2023.1.9.316","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.37536/fitispos-ij.2023.1.9.316","url":null,"abstract":"This article looks at the impact of the pandemic on the work environment of public service interpreters in Finland from a listening-oriented perspective. The rapid switch to remote interpreting in all public service interpreting settings, i.e., the use of virtual meeting tools such as Teams alongside traditional telephone interpreting, affected the listening conditions of public service interpreters dramatically during the spring and summer of 2020. Later during the year, interpreters were able to return to face-to-face interpreting, but encountered yet a new interaction and listening reality: interpreting with face masks. The theoretical framework of this study consisted of the stages of the relational listening process (Halone & Pecchioni, 2001), and the concept of external listening filters in dialogue interpreting (Author, 2020, pp. 481–488). The focus was on the interpreters’ experience of working in three different interactional settings that involved external listening filters: remote interpreting via the phone, remote interpreting via video link, and interpreting in-situ while wearing a face mask. The research data consisted of 357 individual answers from 41 practising interpreters to an electronic survey on the topic carried out in November 2021. The results of the qualitative content analysis show that interpreters have mixed feelings about the technical solutions used during the pandemic in 2020 and 2021. Some respondents have come to prefer remote interpreting, whereas others rather interpret in-situ, despite having to wear face masks. All three interaction modes have both negative and positive aspects from the interpreter’s perspective. Most respondents considered interpreting with face masks difficult in many ways. Research is needed on the long-term effects of the use of face masks on interpreters’ wellbeing.","PeriodicalId":204171,"journal":{"name":"FITISPos International Journal","volume":"46 17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123817041","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

En España, el 14 de marzo de 2020 todas las enseñanzas regladas pasaron a impartirse en modalidad online (Ministerio de la Presidencia, 2020). Lo que para muchas materias teóricas supuso simplemente un cambio de canal en el trasvase de la información de profesor a alumno y en la comunicación entre ambos, para asignaturas prácticas el problema fue mucho mayor. Sin laboratorios ni clínicas donde poder trabajar (Silió, 2020), los profesores tuvieron que estudiar todas las opciones que las instituciones educativas ponían a su disposición para garantizar la adquisición de contenidos y competencias por parte del alumnado. \u0000La docencia en interpretación simultánea fue una de las disciplinas afectadas por el confinamiento. La necesidad de contar con herramientas que permitieran al profesor escuchar a los alumnos sin que ellos se pudieran escuchar entre sí quedaba fuera de las posibilidades que ofrecían los campus virtuales y, por lo tanto, era necesario buscar soluciones que permitieran impartir esta materia con garantías. \u0000En respuesta a la problemática planteada, se realizó un estudio de las herramientas gratuitas existentes y se decidió combinar el uso de plataformas conocidas en el ámbito universitario, como son Collaborate, Skype y Meet y emplearlas en diferentes asignaturas de interpretación impartidas en la Universidad Complutense de Madrid y en la Universidad Europea de Madrid. Gracias a estas herramientas se han podido crear cabinas virtuales y recrear un entorno formativo que ha servido también para introducir aspectos de la interpretación en remoto.","PeriodicalId":204171,"journal":{"name":"FITISPos International Journal","volume":"82 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115701362","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
