Abstract

This case study examined the effectiveness and students' perceptions of using collaborative translation in an EFL educational setting in China. Sixty-two sophomores majoring in a translation program participated in this study. Students' collaborative translation performance and their perceptions of applying collaborative translation, through pre-test, post-test, and two questionnaires, were investigated to obtain the findings. The results indicated that students' translation skills in the post-test significantly increased and they favored working on collaborative translation. Also, their self-efficacy level was relatively high towards collaborative translation after intervention. This study indicates that collaborative translation can serve as a useful pedagogy to help EFL students improve their translation skills.
