This stand-alone short course, aims to introduce students to the principles and practice of transcription, including transcription technology.
Practical written language skills are reinforced by reflection on decision-making as to what constitutes appropriate vocabulary, punctuation, register and tone in different
communicative contexts as well as by problem-solving involving written and oral text organization and re-organisation. Practical auditory skills are enhanced by an understanding
of different accents, pronunciation and dialects.
