Immediate Vs. Delayed Feedback Thread poster: Hanieh Azimzadegan

Hi,
I am student of MA English Translation. Recently, I am working on translation competence and giving feedback.
As you know, giving feedback and its type are very important. What do you thank about Immediate (during the task) and delayed feedback (after the task) in translation for students?
Which of them is better?

| Prefer delayed feedback. | Dec 8, 2017 |
I would like immediate feedback right away only if I'm not sure or if I have questions. Otherwise I wouldn't want someone 'looking over my shoulder' while i'm working. After I'm finished, I may get not only feedback about specific details but also overall feedback, such as suggestions about what kind of things to avoid, what to improve upon, encouragement, etc.

| Immediate feedback??? | Dec 9, 2017 |
I don't want anyone looking at my work while I'm doing it. I don't want to be judged on something that hasn't been polished to perfection. If I have any doubts I'll ask for more information, and apart from that I'm to be left well alone.
Delayed feedback, i.e. within a reasonable time frame so the client has had time to look at my text and check anything they don't get, is much appreciated.

Sorry, I don't have any books or articles in this field. I just gave you my opinion based on my personal experience of a boss who used to breathe down my neck and my favourite clients who ask questions and make sure everything is OK and learn to trust me.
And personal experience is a far more effective way of learning than reading books and articles, believe me. Whatever the subject matter.

| What's the point in asking this question? | Dec 10, 2017 |
What are its practical implications?
People would be in a better position to offer their opinions if they know better about your purpose.
