XDOC2009 Conference posters (2 cr)
Description
Poster presentations represent an interactive and visual way of showcasing research at conferences. Generally less formal than traditional presentations, they allow for opportunities to engage with other conference attendees in a low-pressure, feedback-conducive environment. In this course we will examine effective examples of conference posters. Participants will then learn how to create and present a poster based on their own research.
