  C. Roy, Editor - In this latest addition to the Interpreter Education series, more methods and tools are introduced to instructors with six chapters on new curricula and creative teaching methods. Topics include: principles for teaching effective health-care interpreting, skill development in six critical areas of cognitive-processing, interpersonal, linguistics, professional, setting-specific and socio-cultural. This text also addresses issues of ethnicity, cultural awareness, and intercultural communication skills among interpreters, interpreter educators, and interpreter education programs to enhance competency for working within diverse sign language communities. With increasing number of Latino Americans who are deaf and need an interpreter who knows Spanish, English, American, and Mexican Sign Language, this is an excellent and recommended resource.
