An empirical study of the ideal qualities of MTI teachers from students’ perspectives

本研究采用问卷调查与访谈结合的方式,对我国21个省市自治区的568名MTI学生心目中理想翻译硕士(MTI)教师的素质进行了实证研究。首先采用探索性因子分析的方法,得出构成学生心目中理想MTI教师的五个维度,分别为教师的学科知识、师德风范、实践能力、教学能力以及科研能力。随后研究者结合对13名MTI学生的访谈内容,进一步分析了理想MTI教师素质的特点,并尝试建构基于大规模实证研究的学生视角下理想MTI教师素质模型。该模型的建构旨在为教师了解学生在MTI学习过程中多维度的需求提供参考,使教师实现高效的MTI教学,培养出符合翻译市场需求的人才,同时也为MTI教师的培训与发展方向提供实证支持,提升MTI教育的质量。
