Along with the rapid socioeconomic development and the steady growth of science and culture, there appears a growing demand from the society and the market for high-level and high-quality translators. However, in the traditional teaching mode, which cannot meet the social needs for qualified translators, the cultivation of translators is isolated from the social demands, leading to the increasing contradiction between supply and demand. This paper will, based on the current state of the course of translation for foreign language majors in our college, discuss the teaching mode reform of translation from the aspects of curriculum, teaching method reform, elevation of teachers’ professional attainment, and textbook compilation, aiming to foster practical translators with solid professional background, good language and culture knowledge, and innovation spirit.
Translation course, as one of the core curriculum courses in foreign language teaching, plays a very important role in cultivating the practical, applied and inter-disciplinary talents. There arises an increasing demand for translators, especially in current China’s economy transformation period. It’s the key task which higher education must confront with that how to cultivate the translators who can adapt to the social development and satisfy the social demand. Taking an example of translation course reform in NCIST, the paper tries to explore the possibility of the interactive translation methods under the circumstance of network platform. Through this analysis, we try to reform the traditional translation course in order to cultivate the real applied talents of innovation and translation ability.
