Common questions, and answers, about designing and presenting Student
Posters.
- How do I make sure that my poster
presentation is appealing to conference
attendees?
- Make your
poster appealing and interesting but above all, make sure it
is easy to
read - from a distance. Fonts for text should be at least 24
point. Use
mixed case (sentence capitalization) and an easy to read font
(times,
palatino or other serif font). A good size for titles is 72 point
font.
Ornamental, serif fonts in call capitals is fine for titles.
Color
can be used either as a background or foreground for your poster.
Accents
in various colors are also appealing.
Graphics can also be used to
convey information quickly and easily. Consider
using illustrations,
drawings, graphics or photographs where appropriate.
- How much
space will I have to display my poster?
-
Student posters will each have a display of approximately 1.8m wide by
1.2m tall (6' wide by 4' tall) with a narrow table for other
materials. The table is 1.8m wide by 0.38m deep (6' wide by 1.25'
deep).
- Will I have to be present at my poster?
- Posters will be on display for one day, and author(s) will be
expected to be present at scheduled times
(to be determined) for informal discussions at
their posters.
- What facilities will there be at the conference?
- Practical
information for setting up posters at the conference will be
provided here
when the details have been finalized.
