Students will acquire an understanding of and familiarity with translation software applications and develop a practical competence in the range of functionalities offered. They will use a range of translations (their own and/or already existing texts) in order to build up a bank (data-base) of materials. This will form the basis of a critical evaluation of the software, requiring analysis of its strengths and limitations in relation to different translation contexts.
