How Peer Feedback Groups Can Help Boost Translation Skills

Certification exams typically have low pass rates. Anecdotally, peer feedback leads to better outcomes than individual preparation. To be successful, peer feedback groups must be well structured and feedback should adhere to relevant performance criteria. This webinar will discuss how to select and organize participants, how to pick productivity tools, source text selection, and feedback guidelines.

This workshop is presented by Jason Knapp from Knapp Language Services.
