Abstract Despite the fact that translation teaching research has been gaining momentum over the last two decades, little has been written and therefore known about translation assessment in the teaching context. This article reports on a data-based empirical study of translation testing in China. The issues raised in it range from teachers’ attitudes towards testing to its objectives, design, contents, frequency, and its pedagogical roles. It is suggested that more research be done on translation testing, of which the first task is to develop a theoretical framework to provide guidance for translation testing practice and research. It is further recommended that translation testing be made more teaching-oriented and brought closer to the real world of professional translation.

In the real world, a large amount of data can be described by networks using relations between data. The data described by networks can be called networked data. Classification is one of the main tasks in analyzing networked data. Most of the previous methods find the class of the unlabeled node using the classes of its neighbor nodes. However, in the networks with heterophily, most of connected nodes belong to different classes. It is hard to get the correct class using the classes of neighbor nodes, so the previous methods have a low level of performance in the networks with heterophily. In this paper, a probabilistic method is proposed to address this problem. Firstly, the class propagating distribution of the node is proposed to describe the probabilities that its neighbor nodes belong to each class. After that, the class propagating distributions of neighbor nodes are used to calculate the class of the unlabeled node. At last, a classification algorithm based on class propagating distribution is presented in the form of matrix operations. In empirical study, we apply the proposed algorithm to the real-world datasets, compared with some other algorithms. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm performs better when the networks are of heterophily.

This article presents some streamlined and intentionally oversimplified ideas about educating future communication disorders professionals to use some of the most basic principles of evidence-based practice. Working from a popular five-step approach, modifications are suggested that may make the ideas more accessible, and therefore more useful, for university faculty, other supervisors, and future professionals in speech-language pathology, audiology, and related fields.
