Variables Within Interpreted TelePresence Scenarios
• Determine “best practices” when working with TP and interpreters– Face-to-face within the TP system– Remote with the TP system

Our Goals for Participants• Interpreters:
– To have the same interpreters across scenarios– Nationally certified– Flexible
• Deaf participants:– To have the same “students” across scenarios– Experience with interpreters– Willing to give feedback
• Hearing participants:– To have the same “presenters” across scenarios– Some knowledge/experience working with interpreters

What We Did• Assigned everyone a “role”• Ran the scenario, with 2 working interpreters and a third
one observing/advising• Distributed written feedback forms to all• Conducted approx. 15 minute de-briefings with all
participants• Two interpreters now participated and third did the
interpreting• Made minor adjustments from feedback, took a short
break, moved on to next scenario

Results - Primary Themes• Cameras are voice-activated
– Problems for Deaf participants– Problems for interpreters
• Actual positioning of interpreters– In the room, near the screen– In the other room, near the presenter
• Interpreters cannot communicate with Deaf participants
– Remote• Problems with lack of eye contact, re-adjusting tiles on the screen
• Quality – wow!!• Future – lots of possibilities!!
