Description:

The University of Michigan’s Language Resource Center organizes an annual translation marathon; inviting students, faculty, staff and local community members to come together for two days and translate community based projects. While our event is co-curricular, over the years we have had increasing interest in incorporating these projects into language classes.

Delivery format: Zoom meeting

Contact: Jana Martin, Associate Director, Language Institute. Email Jana for access to a recording of the session.

If you need accommodations to participate in this event, contact Adolfo Carrillo Cabello at least three business days prior to the event.
