Bio:

Dr. Robyn Dean

Robyn achieved her doctoral from Heriot-Watt on the ethical reasoning skills of signed language interpreters and has also completed many publications.

Robyn has a very different approach in the advancing of interpreters’ ethical reasoning and has been working to change the way that the field teaches and engages in ethical thought.

Her work has traditionally focused on the profession moving away from using ethical dilemmas as a way of advancing ethical thought and instead, uses a more problem-based learning approach.
