After an initial brief period of technical difficulties with the audio; I thought the presentation was not only well -presented and interesting, but that it also offered a lot of useful and new information, as well. Thanks again for this well-received yearly event, Suzanne: keep up the good work!

13:27 Jun 6, 2014 Peter Motte: 30753 All Het teaches in big class rooms, and I thinkg some of them follow lessons via the internet. Personally I don't believe it improves the students' changes. There setting in a room for 1 and ahlf hour, but will they remember somethign? Where willt they find time to actually learn what they have seen in class?

13:29 Jun 6, 2014 Lucia Leszinsky: 855539 All How about doing tech work for other translators and language professionals? Would that count as another way of generating income?
13:29 Jun 6, 2014 Nicole Y. Adams, M.A.: 117097 All Tech work as in file preparation and conversion and such like?
13:29 Jun 6, 2014 Peter Motte: 30753 All Thinks like teaching, tour guide etc have one big advantage: it's rather difficult to replace that kind of jobs by computers. You need somebody to be there, on the spot.
