Some reflections on the teaching of CAT

چکیده
Synopsis Information processing is both a tool for the professional translator and an area of interest to translators. This implies 2 types of teaching for data processing: knowledge of the field and know-how. The use of machine aids to translation has to respect 2 fundamental principles : the techniques are to be used in the service of content and the document has to be thought as electronic. As more and more translators are called upon to use MT systems or MAT tools, as those techniques lead to new translation professions, we have to train the students. But an intelligent use of these tools requires some expertise in computational linguistics, which, incidentally, provides an initiation to an intellectual way of thinking that can only be profitable to students in their professional careers.
