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.

Learning outcomes

On completion of the course, participants are expected to…

  • be aware of the professional significance of conference poster presentations
  • plan a poster presentation for a conference in their respective fields
  • be able to communicate their research clearly and succinctly
  • be aware of different interactional strategies when presenting their poster
