Abstract At a time when the advances in information and communication technologies meant that new approaches to virtual teaching and learning could be proposed, the teaching staff on the degree in Translation and Interpreting at UVic decided to offer part of the degree in distance learning mode. This learning mode was launched in the 2001–2002 academic year, with optional face-to-face teaching sessions some Saturdays and coexisted with the traditional face-to-face courses. During the first years, the fourth-year interpreting specialisation subjects were not taught online for technical and pedagogical reasons. Since the 2014-2015 academic year, we also teach these subjects online. The challenge that we face starting the 2017-2018 academic year is twofold: 1. To adapt the online teaching of interpreting subjects to groups with a high number of students in the new Inter-university Degree in Translation, Interpreting and Applied Languages jointly offered by the University of Vic and the Open University of Catalonia (UOC). 2. To adapt the contents and methodology of interpreting subjects to changes in professional practice: telephone and videoconference interpreting, especially in liaison interpreting. In our paper, we will show some online teaching resources, as well as several online tools which we use in our courses.

Collegial Interaction

The aim of the article is to increase the understanding of how university teachers think about pedagogy in web-based teaching. The orientation to pedagogy that teachers have in their instruction is evident from their thoughts about student learning. The focus of this study is on the pedagogy that the teachers displayed in their collegial interaction during a web-based staff training course. The objective of this course was to enhance the teachers’ pedagogical skills in their web-based teaching. The qualitative data consisting of the teachers’ web-based discussions provides insight into their conceptions of what constitutes good teaching and learning. These conceptions can be understood in light of the theoretical model of meaningful learning (Jonassen, 1995). Furthermore, deepening a teacher’s understanding by taking the learner’s position appears to be a powerful tool in understanding the prerequisites for the successful use of information and communication technology (ICT) in teaching. The results show that teachers were more focused on how to facilitate student collaboration in their web-based teaching and less on how to contextualise the content or how to facilitate the transferability of the content taught into other contexts and situations. The teachers’ own experiences of what it means to be a learner in a web-based environment may be an essential learning experience through which they realise that when teaching in web-based environments, it is necessary that every choice they make be justifiable in terms of pedagogy.

The problem with attaining education equality for various categories of the population has been one of the priority topics of social and political studies. Kazakhstan has recently stated the aim to ensure equal access for all participants in the educational process to the best resources and technologies. However, half of all state schools are in rural areas and supporting them is often inadequate in comparison to urban schools. These schools have minimal infrastructure, for example, a lack of proper Internet access and professional development opportunities for teachers. The barriers to information and communication technologies in education seem to be one of the main issues for teaching staff in rural settings. The purpose of this research was to explore the issues of ICT integration in teaching and learning processes among secondary school teachers. This multiple case study explored the experiences of eight instructors from three rural schools through semi-structured interviews, lesson observations, and curriculum analysis. The results reveal evidence of the very poor quality of the Internet in visited rural schools. The findings also demonstrate that teachers often have to use their personal mobile phones at work despite the ban from administration. This, along with the poor technological capability of the schools, negatively affects the educational process in visited schools.
