RESUMEN. Esta contribución analiza las posibilidades de diversificación curricular situacional en Traducción, de mano de la introducción de contenidos relacionados con los denominados servicios de valor añadido (EN 15038; ISO 17100). Dichos servicios responden a la diversificación ofrecida por los distintos proveedores de servicios lingüísticos en el mercado. Requieren la activación de un núcleo de competencias claramente traductológicas, funcionales e interculturales, pero pueden distinguirse de los servicios más generales o convencionales de traducción. Dicha diferenciación responde a cuestiones tecnológicas, procesuales, de formato o de gestión de los diferentes proyectos, según las necesidades del cliente, y demandan competencias específicas concretas. Desde la perspectiva de la formación situacional (Calvo, 2015;González-Davies & Enríquez-Raído, 2016;Risku, 2002Risku, , 2009Risku, , 2016Vienne, 1994), este artículo recorre propuestas relacionadas con el valor de los proyectos y los portafolios en la formación de traductores. Asimismo, presenta un modelo de trabajo integrador que permite a los alumnos conocer las diferentes caras del mercado, desde la perspectiva de la traducción publicitaria, la revisión, la gestión de proyectos, la posedición, la consultoría intercultural y la transcreación. Se podrá comprobar cómo una propuesta formativa de especialización (retrospectividad) evoluciona hacia una experiencia de aprendizaje transversal significativo (prospectividad) (Calvo, 2015). ABSTRACT. This paper analyzes the potential benefits of including value-added services content as a means of diversifying translation training curricula. 'Valueadded service' is a term used in the language industry (EN 15038, 2006; ISO 17100, 2015) to refer to an open catalogue of differentiated language services offered by Language Service Providers (LSP). Such services require the exercise of basic core translation and intercultural skills but also entail differences when compared to more general, conventional translation tasks. Differentiation factors include specific technological input and different processes, formats and managerial frameworks, each of which require specific skills from the language professional. From a situational perspective (Calvo, 2015;González-Davies & Enríquez-Raído, 2016;Risku, 2002Risku, , 2009Risku, , 2016Vienne, 1994), this paper reviews different approaches to the use of projects and portfolios in translator training contexts. An innovative, integrative work model is also presented, as a framework for bringing students into contact with different facets of the language industry today: e.g., marketing translation, editing, project management, post-editing, intercultural consulting, and transcreation. The paper thus shows how a vocational, highly-specialized project (retrospective approach) can be developed into a more transferable, more significant learning experience (prospective approach) (Calvo, 2015).

As Austermühl (2001) put it over a decade ago, the use of information and communication technologies is a fait accompli in the lives of today’s translators. Translation Studies (TS) have traditionally contemplated technologies only as supporting tools for translation practice, and translators’ tools have not enjoyed consideration as decisive actors in TS. Hence, their impact has been somehow underrepresented in the discipline. In the light of well-established translation paradigms (linguistic, functional, cognitive, sociological), we analyze the role played by technology. Most TS approaches are artifactual, this meaning that a rather simplistic and outdated distinction is made between translator minds and the tools they use. This paper proposes an instrumental approach to technologies within TS. In this, cohesive and mutual merging between translators and their technologies, both field-specific and generic tools lead us towards a concept that goes beyond purely linguistic or anthropocentric translation notions. A trans-human translation theoretical modeling is proposed to revisit TS paradigms in the context of the Information Society era. The trans-human translation closes the loop initiated by the fragmentation and dehumanization of first translation technologies, and envisages a stimulating future for translators, where they will use technological and social extensions in a creative and critical way.Comme Austermühl (2001) l’a mentionné il y a plus d’une décennie, l’utilisation des technologies de l’information et de la communication est un fait accompli dans la vie actuelle des traducteurs. La traductologie a traditionnellement envisagé les technologies comme étant seulement des outils de soutien dans la pratique de la traduction, et les outils des traducteurs n’ont pas bénéficié de considération à titre d’acteurs décisifs de ce domaine. C’est pourquoi leur impact, d’une certaine façon, a été sous représenté dans cette discipline. Nous analysons le rôle joué par la technologie selon plusieurs paradigmes de traduction bien établis (linguistique, fonctionnel, cognitif, sociologique). La plupart des approches et des études en traduction font une distinction, plutôt simpliste et périmée, entre les esprits des traducteurs et les outils qu’ils utilisent. Cet article propose une approche instrumentale des technologies en matière de traductologie. En cela, le fusionnement cohésif et mutuel entre les traducteurs et leurs outils de technologie, spécifiques à un domaine ou génériques, nous mène vers un concept qui dépasse les notions purement linguistiques ou anthropocentriques de la traduction. Un modèle théorique de transhumanisation de la traduction est proposé afin de revisiter des paradigmes traductologiques dans l’ère de la société de l’information. La transhumanisation de la traduction ferme la boucle lancée par la fragmentation et la déshumanisation des premières technologies de traduction, et envisage un futur stimulant, dans lequel les traducteurs emploieront des prolongements technologiques et sociaux d’une ma...
Functionalist theories of translation seem to have their roots in the examination of professional translation processes. The functionalist notion of skopos (Vermeer, 1996) focuses on the purpose of the translation project, highlighting a concept that potentially links TS with professional practice: the brief. While many translators receive sparse or insufficiently explicit briefs (Byrne, 2012), in other cases, translation vendors develop extremely complex specifications encompassing a wide range of different constraining elements at different levels. This paper analyses how, if at all, different models or systems of skopoi and briefs can be incorporated into today's professional market. Special emphasis is placed on the potential correlation between functionalist concepts and translation industry normalization instruments (such as ISO 17100).
