Abstract

Chinese translation education began and spread as part of practical training in Chinese language education. The translation education was used as a tool of language acquisition, and thus the Chinese translation education was abnormally expanded. Therefore, in this study, it was clarified that the aim of the undergraduate translation education is to cultivate the competence of translation. For the 'process - oriented teaching' of the undergraduate course, ‘translation diary’ was suggested as a method of translation classes. Also, based on the students' statements written in the translation diary, this study analyzed how the translation competence is cultivated through the undergraduate course. In conclusion, 'translation knowledge competence' and 'instrumental competence', which are sub-competence of translation competence, were influencing students' 'translation competence'. At the beginning of the translation class, the students' problems were focused on solving the problem of linguistic level. However, as the lessons progressed, the focus of the students' problems shifted to solving the 'problem of translation level'. And this study confirmed that the strategic competence was improved in this process. Translation diary is a great tool for 'process-oriented teaching' and a good teaching methodology for translation education researchers.
