Abstract
This chapter focuses on the use of digital pen technology in interpreter training, practice, and research. It presents pedagogical approaches implemented in note-taking classes and analyzes interpreter trainees’ opinions about the usability of the pen, its features and its effect on note-taking analysis, as well as on the development of good note-taking conventions. It also contextualizes empirical findings from outside the interpreting classroom on the use of this digital technology in the interpreting profession worldwide. Finally, it discusses results from a pilot study on the amenability of the digital pen in a hybrid mode of interpreting: consec-simul with notes.
