研究领域

Hari’s main research interests lie in translation pedagogy and Computer Aided Translation. He has been particularly interested in the social constructivist approach to translation teaching. His past research project involved designing a web-based platform to support collaborative learning of translation while at present he is working on a pedagogy that integrates currently available technology in the training translators of the information age. He has supervised graduate theses both on translation studies and interpreting. Key themes include Simultaneous Interpreter training, functionalist analyses of translations, comparisons of pre/post editing in Machine Translation and evaluation of MT and Translation Memory systems.
