Let’sMT! as a learning platform for SMT

This paper presents an overview of two pilot studies conducted at the University of Copenhagen during the spring of 2013. The studies are based on the use of the Let’sMT! platform, which is also presented in an overview. The purpose of the studies was to investigate whether experiments with the Let’sMT! platform would be adequate for the students as a learning activity during the machine translation components of their courses, and for the instructors to gain experience that would allow them to later integrate the platform properly into the courses. The studies show that the platform is very adequate both for undergraduate and graduate students.
