“Creating Connections—Expanding Possibilities:
Infusing NCIEC Resources into Interpreter Education”
March 4 – 6, 2015
 

We are no longer accepting applications for this event.

Please join us for this three-day symposium offered in collaboration with VRSII! Participants will have the opportunity to explore and analyze an array of educational resources developed with federal grant funds by NCIEC. Participants will apply NCIEC resources to individual contexts to enhance the effectiveness of teaching and mentoring with practical, ready-to-use materials. At the close of the symposium, participants will be given full access to all NCIEC resources for their use.

 


The resources to be explored include:

  • Complete curriculum packages, including pre- and post-test materials, PPTs, handouts, media clips and additional content to prepare interpreters to work in specialized settings
  • Learning modules focused on unique topics of contemporary interest to interpreting students
  • ASL glossaries of specialized vocabulary
  • A library of newly-developed source texts in both ASL and English
  • Archived webinars on a wide range of topics of interest to interpreters and interpreter educators
  • Consumer education and self-advocacy resources, among many others products

Attend the VRSII/NCIEC Interpreter Educator Collaboration to learn about the NCIEC products and how they can be infused into your curriculum to provide measurable results and improvements for interpreter education and mentoring activities.
