章节摘录

　　Finally， the "use of vicarious exeriences treats expertise as a resource" （219）， as the expert engages in storytelling from the field. "For example， stories are accounts of the experiences of others and are often sufficiently vivid to serve as additions to the experience base" （217）. A valuable pedagogical practice， the usefulness of stories of experience and narrative inquiry has been demonstrated particularly in the training of medical nurses （Connelly & Clandinin 1990）， A goal of interpreter educators could be to remove the anecdotal from storytelling and leverage their professional knowledge by relating their practical experience systematically to classroom tasks. In this respect， vicarious experiences can be used to develop instructional modules similar to case studies.　　Therefore， knowledge gained from the study of expertise indicates that training programs benefit by including all four types of learning experiences. A combination of personal， manufactured， directed and vicarious experiences can be achieved by offering a range of instructional events， e.g.， classroom instruction， internships in the workplace， and reflective practica （de Terra & Sawyer 1998）. The attainment of a synthesis of learning experiences and instructional events that are clearly related to curriculum goals is a hallmark of effective curriculum design.　　……
