ICT for Translation and Interpretation

Global Crisis: A SHORT OF QUALIFIED LANGUAGES


In 2010 the Paris Declaration, the European institutions anticipate that in the next ten years from the decline of qualified linguistics. Industries are concerned about this lack of skills because they represent an average loss of € 325,000 per business.

HOW TO TREAT THIS CRISIS?

The answer is beyond education, but there are some difficulties in most learning methods. John Dewey (1859 - 1952), American philosopher, psychologist, and
Educational reformer. He is one of the primary figures associated with
The philosophy of pragmatism is considered one of the parents
From functional psychology. As Dewey's experience is vital in the learning process, but for the experience to be valid, the activities must be authentic.

Information and communication technology

Information and communication technologyToday we are using ICT without asking if it is what it is doing. As a basic rule for the use of technology that ICTs 4C, those rules do not allow us to see that it is not just how to post a photo on Facebook and make everyone see it, how to search and reach Reality Valuable information, sotrage and sharing.4C of ICT1.

Electronic Era

Electronic Era

Some have begun to call it the Information Revolution. Technological changes brought dramatic new options to Americans living in the 1990s. From the beginning of the decade until the end, new forms of entertainment, commerce, research, work, and communication became commonplace in the United States. The driving force behind much of this change was an innovation popularly known as the Internet.

Personal computers had become widespread by the end of the 1980s. Also available was the ability to connect these computers over local or even national networks. Through a device called a modem, individual users could link their computer to a wealth of information using conventional phone lines. What lay beyond the individual computer was a vast domain of information known as cyberspace.

The INTERNET was developed during the 1970s by the Department of Defense. In the case of an attack, military advisers suggested the advantage of being able to operate one computer from another terminal. In the early days, the Internet was used mainly by scientists to communicate with other scientists. The Internet remained under government control until 1984.

Electromechanica Era

Electromechanical Era

(1840-1940)

The discovery of ways to harness electricity was the key advance made during this periods. Knowledge and information could now be converted into electrical impulses. The beginnings of telecommunication. The telegraph ( Invented By Samuel F.J. Morse) created the character of our current information age. It broke the connection between communication and transportation. Prior to the telegraph, the speed of communication was the speed of a train--about 35 miles per hour! The telegraph dropped it to just a few seconds: point A to point B in an electronic pulse! With it a new experience was unfolding: information was no longer just local and rooted in immediate context. Instead, ideas and news were now presented in what Shane Hipps called in his book The Hidden Power of Electronic Culture “a mosaic of unrelated data points with not apparent connection.”

Mechanical Era

Mechanical Era

Can be defined as the time between 1450 and 1840.

The idea of using machines to solve mathematical problems can be traced at least as far as the early 17th century. Mathematicians who designed and implemented calculators that were capable of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division included Wilhelm Schickhard, Blaise Pascal, and Gottfried Leibnitz.
The first multipurpose, i.e. programmable, computing device was probably Charles Babbage's Difference Engine, which was begun in 1823 but never completed. A more ambitious machine was the Analytical Engine. It was designed in 1842, but unfortunately it also was only partially completed by Babbage. Babbage. was truly a man ahead of his time: many historians think the major reason he was unable to complete these projects was the fact that the technology of the day was not reliable enough. In spite of never building a complete working machine, Babbage and his colleagues, most notably Ada, Countess of Lovelace, recognized several important programming techniques, including conditional branches, iterative loops and index.

Premechanical Era

Premechanical Era

The premechanical age is the earliest age of information technology. It can be defined as the time between 3000B.C. and 1450A.D. We are talking about a long time ago. When humans first started communicating they would try to use language or simple picture drawings known as petroglyths which were usually carved in rock. Early alphabets were developed such as the Phoenician alphabet.

Time which various systems were made that didn't need any mechanical effort, so it is called the pre-mechanical age of computers.
