Poster Presentations
Presentation of an academic poster
The poster session provides the opportunity to share work through a visual presentation and includes a question and answer period. The posters will be on display throughout the symposium and the author(s) is/are present. It provides an opportunity to communicate with peers in an informal and intimate setting.
The oral presentation, sometimes called a paper session, will be a 15-minute oral presentation with 5 minutes of questions.
Some examples of a project or research presentation might include topics like:
- The effect of visual input on brainwaves
- An app
- An analysis of a dance performance
- Literature reviews
- The effects of caffeine on VO2max
- The comparison of performance on a rubric as judged by an instructor compared with a final grade, or the effect of messaging on exercise seeking behavior.
- And more.
The exhibition of work or performance is a category suitable for creative works.
The display time includes a question and answer period. The work will be on display throughout the symposium and the author(s) is/are present. It provides an opportunity to communicate with peers in an informal and intimate setting virtually.
- Interpretative dance
- Sculptures
- Paintings
- Machined products
- Architectural design
- Ice sculptures
- A musical performance
- And more.
This venue will have works on display throughout the symposium.
Talk with your faculty or staff mentor if you are not sure whether your work is best suited to a poster, oral presentation, or exhibition of work. Any work may have more than one author or presenter and should include projects that have been done in class.
