Students' Perceptions of Using Portfolio in the Specialized Translation Classroom

Abstract

The implementation of the new degrees in Translation and Interpretation, following the guidelines established in the European Higher Education Area, has brought with it many adjustments, modifications and adaptations in the methodology of the teaching-learning process within the university arena. In this sense, and more specifically in the field of the evaluation of teaching-learning of specialized translation, the use of useful, as well as reliable tools for collecting information, for a better and exhaustive assessment of learning among students, is more than necessary. In this work, we highlight, through the administration of a questionnaire to third-year undergraduate students of Specialized Translation of the University of Granada, the students’ perception of their own learning, based on the sub-competences acquired during the preparation of a portfolio.
