“…Teacher education in this regard is divided into pre-service and in-service ones. PhD cultivation is known as the main form of pre-service training for MTI teachers (Buckley, 2021). To probe into the pedagogical development of PhD students in translation, Li and Zhang (2011) adopted case studies, questionnaires and interviews with nine doctoral students and two new PhD graduates.…”

Teacher development plays a pivotal role in the program of Master of Translation and Interpretation (MTI) but there was inadequate research on their current state and needs in China. This research aimed to investigate their current state in teaching, academic research and translation practice and present a detailed description of their age, professional title and academic qualifications. A mixed methodology design was adopted to ensure reliability and validity of data by means of triangulation. The sample in this study was 514 teachers from 32 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions in China. They were surveyed via quantitative questionnaires and online interviews. The findings were as follows.1：Despite reasonable age structure, around 50% of them had less than three years’ teaching practice in MTI. 2: There was an increase in the figure for MTI teachers with doctoral degree but they felt it difficult to offer learners professional guidance. 3: A large percentage of MTI teachers were in a comparatively slow stream of promotion in the title of professional post. 4: The percentage of the academic achievements associated with translation in all the research projects and papers was small. 5: A majority of these university teachers worked as part-time translators. 6: About half of them were not very content with the effectiveness in their staff training program. Therefore, it is recommended that more chances be offered for the MTI teachers to conduct translation practice in the professional sector and more researches be needed to meticulously understand their requirement in terms of career development with a view to bridging the gap between the resources in the teacher training and their actual needs.

“…Fourth, if student evaluations are deemed to be of benefit, this must be weighed against the compounded costs of sampling (Simpson, 2018) and unconscious biases, openly discriminatory comments against women (Buckley, 2021;Wagner, Rieger, & Voorvelt, 2016), people of colour, and LGBTIQA+ staff members, all of which are well-documented and target the most vulnerable staff (Fan et al, 2019;Gelber, Brennan, Duriesmith, & Fenton, 2022). The discipline of study can be impacted by low evaluation scores (Leach, 2016).…”

Change in higher education creates many risks to the sustainability of teaching practices. In this paper, we review some perspectives and resources on change in higher education and examine strategies for educators to participate in sustainable change. Central to this is the role of local mission statements, formulated to consciously reflect common values and purpose within a team of colleagues, and used to guide decision making, particularly in times of change. This discussion considers changes in teaching practice, such as those required for active learning, informed by principles concerning general organisational change, and specific qualities of contemporary higher education in the sciences.
