Çağdaş Acar

Mediation is central to what I do. As a consultant in the field of translation technologies, I mediate between user profiles. It is challenging since it means constructing and re-constructing the full dynamics of any software within the minds of people with varying computer literacy.
As an adjunct lecturer, I convey this professional experience with undergraduate students of translation studies. Here I offer multiple perspectives, that of a business owner, a PM, a freelancer, and a trainer.
I am a literary translator since 2009. My freelance work covers EN<>TR translations in literature and arts. These real-life translations provide me with the training material to incorporate into the above-mentioned technology classes.
Mediation takes running a full cycle in communication. What I do, I believe, is based on this principle of achieving a full cycle.
