Abstract Feedback is a key part of the teaching and learning process in conference interpreter education. However, there is little research on how feedback should be performed in order to promote learning, or on what trainers and trainees think of its role. This paper, based on a larger PhD research project, seeks to fill this gap by reporting on perceptions and practices in three postgraduate conference interpreter training programs. Data were collected from trainers and trainees through individual interviews, focus groups, and questionnaires, complemented by direct observation of lessons. Content analysis was used to identify points of divergence and convergence between the views of trainers and trainees regarding the usefulness of feedback, preferred practices, and the difficulty of providing feedback. Main findings include that feedback should be honest, concise, and meaningful for the trainees, and provide an analysis of the problems encountered as well as recommend specific strategies for overcoming them.

会议口译教育中的反馈

摘要反馈是会议口译员教学过程中的关键部分。但是，关于应如何进行反馈以促进学习或培训者和受训者如何看待其作用的研究很少。本文基于更大的博士学位研究项目，旨在通过报告三个研究生会议口译培训课程中的观念和实践来填补这一空白。通过个别访谈，焦点小组和调查表从培训师和受训者那里收集数据，并辅之以直接观察课程。内容分析用于确定培训者和受训者在反馈的有用性，首选做法和提供反馈的困难方面的观点之间的分歧和趋同点。
