Teaching method
Subtitling exercises correspond to direct contact with the subtitling software (SPOT) and hands-on experience
of various real-life AVT translation tasks. Additionally, students will be required to make oral presentations
during the correction of all exercises, by discussing the identification of problems, the research leading to the
reflection on alternative solutions and the decision process.
Evaluation method
The final mark will correspond to the average of the following items: attendance, punctuality, regular oral
participation and all assignments carried out throughout the semester (60%), final project (40%).
