Peculiarities of the formation of professionally-based competence as a part of the professional training of future translators

Abstract

The research study is devoted to the problem of formation of professionally-based competence of future translators. The aim of the research study is the model and methodology for the formation of a professionally-based competence of a translator. Now a translator works in various socio-economic and political conditions with representatives of different professional communities, which makes it possible to single out professionally-based competence as one of the key ones in professional training. Consequently, the educational tasks of higher education should imply the formation of professionally-based skills of future specialists.   The article discusses various aspects of the problem under consideration from the position of scientists and modern researchers, which are the components of a professionally-based translator's competence. The necessity of forming this competence while studying at a university is substantiated, since the mastery of professionally- based skills is one of the key requirements for the successful professional activity of a modern specialist in the field of translation. The paper analyzes various approaches to the formation of professionally-based competence, and also considers the methodological potential of modern technologies for the formation of professionally- based competence of students-future translators. In this research study, it has been tried to evaluate the effect of information communication resources-based activities of translators studying at the higher education undergraduate level on their professionally-based competence, technology, and pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) and online ICT attitudes. Quantitative research methods were used in order to generalize the results obtained in the study and to express them based on numerical data.
