Abstract

The integration of Web 2.0 tools into translation education has transformed the way students develop written translation competence. These technologies provide interactive, collaborative, and autonomous learning environments that enhance linguistic accuracy, cultural awareness, and critical thinking. This study examines the role of Web 2.0 tools such as wikis, blogs, online glossaries, and collaborative translation platforms in improving students’ translation skills. The findings suggest that incorporating these tools into translation training increases engagement, facilitates peer feedback, and fosters independent learning. Additionally, the study highlights potential challenges, such as over-reliance on machine translation and information reliability, and suggests strategies to maximize the effectiveness of Web 2.0 tools in translation education.
