Experience international development and localisation Tuesday 01 June -
Software Development The LRC will hold its Fourth International Localisation Summer School and the first Pre-Summer School International Workshop for 3rd Level Localisation Educators this June. The courses will be delivered by localisation professionals in the state-of-the-art facilities of the Department of Computer Science at the University of Limerick, home of the LRC. Over the past years, the University of Limerick (Ireland) and Austin Community College in Texas (USA) have been two of the first academic institutions world-wide to offer an academic programme of study in localisation, backed and supported by industry leaders on both sides of the Atlantic. This is the second time that these two third-level colleges, which are located in two continents invite you to join their International Localisation Summer School where leading instructors from the USA and Europe will deliver the courses.
Pre-Summer School Workshop for 3rd Level Educators The International Workshop for 3rd Level
Localisation Educators will take place on the 31st of May and
will allow individuals, currently teaching localisation –related topics
at third level educational institutions, to meet and discuss localisation
as part of third level education. Attendees
will be invited to give brief presentations on their teaching experiences,
and give their opinions on what they see as the most important issues
involved with the teaching of localisation in third level environments. This workshop will also provide an
opportunity for localisation companies that have developed specialist
teaching and training materials to showcase their materials and methods to
an audience of localisation educators and gain valuable feedback on the
strengths and weaknesses of their training methods. Workshop Schedule:
Note: This day will only be relevant for individuals, who are currently teaching localisation-related topics at 3rd level educational institutions.
Fourth International LRC Localisation Summer School The Summer School will take place over four days, 01-04 June. The theme of this year's summer school is "The Global Application - from Development to Localisation". The course will provide attendees with a thorough overview of the development of global software products. Each day of the course will concentrate on a different aspect of this process. Days will be divided into a theory session in the morning and a hands-on practical session in the afternoon.
