Abstract

TAPs (think-aloud protocols) is originally a research method in psychological and cognitive science, which is used in language learning studies in the last decades. The studies on translating class in China have changed a lot in the last several decades. It begins with focus on the translating skills and so far has developed to student-centered constructive teaching mode. Although scholars in China and abroad have made remarkable achievements in interdisciplinary research on translating teaching, they generally combine it with linguistics other than with other disciplines, especially psychology and cognitive science. There is a lack of sufficient research on translating cognitive characteristics and the thinking process of translation learners. This research tries to use the “thinking aloud protocols” in cognitive psychology to construct a new teaching model of practical translation courses for English majors, in order to do trying research on translating thinking process study, to strengthen the attention paid to the students in translating learning, and to improve their translating ability.
