Abstract

The article is dedicated to a current problem of adapting the educational process of the practice of using digital technologies. Today, in the era of digitalization, the active development and implementation of technologies have significantly impacted all aspects of public life. Translation training is no exception. Today, training in the use of translation technologies takes an important place in the system of training translators in universities. In this article, the researcher uses an example of Chinese scientific schools to investigate how and to what extent digital technologies are used in teaching translation. The purpose of this study is to identify existing problems and find ways to solve them. To achieve this goal, the following tasks are solved: an analysis of the current situation of teaching translation using digital technologies in China was carried out, the availability of specialized courses in translation technology was revealed, the forms of introducing this academic discipline into the educational process, practices, training platforms, teaching materials, and technical equipment were described. It is found that there are many issues: poor awareness of the importance of teaching the use of digital technologies in translation, lack of systemic curricula in this area, lack of educational resources, lack of professional teachers. In conclusion, the author proposes innovations in teaching translation and improving the quality of the organization of the educational process: the systemic introduction of new disciplines that develop skills in working with information and communication technologies in translation to solve the above problems. The practical significance of this study: the results of the study demonstrate the need to optimize training in translation, taking into account the constant development of digital technologies. This optimization will enable universities to prepare translation personnel that can better meet the changing demands of the language services market.

Keywords: digitalization, training of translators, digital translation, translation technologies.
