Taking advantage of a convergence of interests between the domain of Translation Studies and the complex multilingual nature of Wikipedia, the project Translatathon@Uniba was developed to provide MA students in Specialized Translation with an opportunity to carry out a real-world translation task. The project proved to be an invaluable opportunity for the students to refine all competences and skills required of the translator’s profession in the 21st century and has shed light on specific aspects of the didactics of translation which might deserve further investigation in research, especially from the perspective of complexity theory, constructivism and emergentism.

Abstract
Taking advantage of a convergence of interests between the domain of Translation Studies and the complex multilingual nature of Wikipedia, the project Translatathon@Uniba was developed to provide MA students in Specialized Translation with an opportunity to carry out a real-world translation task. The project proved to be an invaluable opportunity for the students to refine all competences and skills required of the translator’s profession in the 21st century and has shed light on specific aspects of the didactics of translation which might deserve further investigation in research, especially from the perspective of complexity theory, constructivism and emergentism.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
