Pedagogies of Translation

While translation is often assumed to be the transformation of words from one language to another, this lecture and workshop will consider definitions of translation broadly, including transforming information across languages, contexts, and audiences. Translation is defined here as an academic, community, and pedagogical practice that pushes communicators to adapt their thoughts and ideas to meet the needs and expectations of various audiences and rhetorical situations. Join us for an interactive lecture and workshop series with Dr. Laura Gonzales on Friday February 24th. RSVP here.

Whether you are seeking to improve your study skills or preparing for an exam, this resource can help you tackle memorizing and retaining large amounts of information through science-backed study methods and strategies. We will also be hosting a workshop about studying for memory, where you can create personalized study plans and leave with supplies.
