Abstract EN
The dynamic nature of the language industry and the current and future demands of the translation market have increased the need for integrating web-based collaborative learning and teamwork techniques into translation training classrooms.
However, the absence of specialized eLearning platforms for translation training makes it difficult for translation trainers to execute collaborative translation tasks that mimic real-life situations.
The present paper discusses online collaborative learning in translation classrooms and argues for involving translator-training stakeholders in the process of designing and developing web-based collaborative learning tools for translator-training purposes.
The paper proposes a software design workflow that can be followed by eLearning software engineers when designing online learning tools for translator training purposes based on Jirava’s (2004) software application life cycle.
The paper also displays different functions of an underdevelopment online-software specialized for translator training institutions.
The design is inspired by translators, translation students, and trainers.
The paper ends by measuring students’ perceptions of the proposed tool in terms of its ease of use and usefulness using Venkatesh and Bala's (2008) Technology Acceptance Model.
