“This book takes crucial questions about the teaching of language and translation skills in our high-tech, GenAI context by the scruff of the neck and gives them a really good and welcome shake. It will prove to be an inspiring read for anyone teaching or learning about language and translation skills.”Sharon O’BrienAssociate Dean for Research, Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, Dublin City University“As the pace of technological developments quickens, translation and language educators and students alike are in need of up-to-date resources to help them navigate the changing landscape. A strength of this book is the sheer variety of food for thought with regard to possible activities to suit different teaching modes and learning styles, along with ways to assess them. It also tackles the thorny problem of responding to student (and instructor) anxieties in this highly technologized field. The path forward through the murky world of generative AI may not be entirely clear, but with this book, Anthony Pym and Yu Hao deliver a compass and a powerful torch to help guide the way.”Lynne BowkerCanada Research Chair in Translation, Technologies, and Society, Université Laval“How to Augment Language Skills is a must-have for language educators and translators. Packed with practical teaching tips and a captivating exploration of AI, this book brings theory to life. With a fascinating dive into Artificial Intelligence (AI), it empowers readers to enhance their language skills and thrive in today's evolving linguistic landscape. An invaluable resource that makes learning accessible and engaging!”Defeng LiDistinguished Professor of Translation Studies, University of Macao
