Facilitating Global Competence in Translator-Interpreter Education: An Action-Based Approach for the English Language Classroom

Abstract

This chapter will attempt to fuse several diverse theories of learning in the 21st century, showing how they can work in combination to enhance the learning experience of our students and how, in esence, they are all interconnected despite deriving from different origins. At their centre, they all have the common idea of connectedness and the thesis that this is essential in creating a better world where resources are used in a more sustainable, respectful and egalitarian way.
