Betty Colonomos presented Foundations III of The Interpreting Process Model over the weekend Oct. 14-16. Interpreters from New York, Massachusetts and Rhode Island gathered at Perspectives in Warwick for a stimulating workshop. We practiced sign-to-voice interpreting consecutively using the Colonomos Model to analyze the goal, theme, affect and register of the live text. Working in groups of 3 one interpreter provided the interpretation. Then 2 interpreters practiced talking about the work in an objective, non-judgmental way.

Colonomos provided a variety of texts for rich discussion and gave us the scaffold on which to build a productive discussion. Her style is filled with compassion and humor, honed by over 40 years of experience. Each interpreter left the weekend with a personal goal based on her own work.

Thank You to Rosa Norberg, Heather Anderson and Hayley Baccaire for your time and energy arranging this opportunity for RI interpreters to work with our colleagues from around New England! The snacks and coffee were much appreciated, the room was comfortable and the equipment ran perfectly. Several members of the workshop enjoyed an Italian dinner at Luigi's in Johnston with Betty after the Saturday session.

​Foundations IV will be offered the weekend of November 18-20 at Advocates in Framingham coordinated by MassRID. We hope to see you there!
