Abstract

The core of the material development on translation course was students’ need, yet most of the instructors seemed to neglect students’ need in developing the materials. The purpose of this study was to identify translation skills need by students in order to purpose the prototype syllabus for teaching translation to university students who take translation course. This study employed survey research to the 70 university students who took translation course for 1 semester. Questionnaire was used to collect the data on students’ opinion which translation skills were important for them. Based on the findings, it could be concluded that translation course material should be directed to develop students’ reading skill, dictionary use skill, skill to translate text from English into Indonesian, and vice versa, skill to translate idiom and tenses, skill to use learning resources, and skill to apply translation’s theory, strategy, and method to translate text
