Since the global Covid-19 pandemic of March 2020, many universities have decided to transfer their face-to-face teaching provision to online platforms. Overnight, academics and students have seen their working environment change dramatically.. Initial discussions among the academic community seem to indicate that the transition is not without a number of hurdles, despite prior experience in using virtual learning environments and\/or incorporating a distance component to face-to-face teaching. While blended learning approaches have been widely encouraged and often applied in university contexts, the speed and wholesale nature of the recent transition has prompted many to rethink how they teach and to look for new pedagogical ideas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Translation and Interpreting Studies (TIS) have also trialled blended learning approaches in the teaching of these subjects for a number of years. Recent efforts to administer TIS course content at a distance have led to a call for more research investigating the use synchronous and asynchronous media (Colina and Angelelli, 2016). Although currently underexplored in TIS research, Distance Learning represents a substantial area of research in other fields, such as Education. There are notorious difficulties that arise from moving face-to-face course content into virtual environments, from designing an online course to administering assessment and fostering collaboration, interaction, and engagement.    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this special issue, we are proposing to explore some of these difficulties in TIS. We will invite contributions covering the following key themes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00b7        Online pedagogy (latest trends)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00b7        (a)synchronous teaching: challenges and opportunities in TIS<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00b7        TIS curriculum and module design for online delivery<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00b7        TIS technologies at a distance<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00b7        TIS online Assessment<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00b7        Fostering TIS (a)synchronous collaboration, interaction, and engagement<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00b7        Acquiring online translation\/interpreting work experience<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We welcome contributions of full-length papers of between 7,000 and 8,000 words (including endnotes and references). All accepted contributions will be double blind peer-reviewed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
