Instant Translate is designed to use machine translation in a very specific way to complement Questionmark’s assessment platform. Rather than removing test-takers from where they are in order to have to find a difficult phrase in a newly translated document, Instant Translate from Questionmark is built to allow test-takers to view a translation side-by-side with the original text.
Better still, Instant Translate will only translate the words a test-taker highlights, avoiding the unnecessary process of scrolling through a full-page translation. In doing this, Instant Translate takes all the power of machine translation to generate instant and on-screen translations while also placing control in the test-taker’s hands.
The result is a tool that provides the most immediate benefit to the test taker, allowing them to take a test fairly, while also helping ameliorate potential ambiguities in stand-alone machine translations.
