NOTES ON PREPARING POSTER PRESENTATION

1. Designing your posters

   • The useable area of the poster board is 140 cm in height and 90 cm in width. The recommended size of the physical poster is 140 cm in height and 90 cm in width and it cannot exceed the poster board.

   • Make sure you have information about the presentation topic, name of the author(s) and affiliation on the poster.

   • Using columns is a good idea. Then the presentation format can be presented in a number of columns, beginning at the left-hand side of the board.

   • A brief introduction, clear explanation of the project/ teaching and learning strategy, and evaluation results (if available) should be clearly displayed on the poster.

   • Focus on a few main points using clear and sufficient graphics.

   • Consider using outlines or dot points for the poster presentation.

   • Use a clear and readable font size.

   • Please confirm the images that you provided are high enough in resolution and do not contain any copyright infringement materials.

   • If your project is funded by a university/ external grant (e.g. UGC, TDLEG, MMCDG, CDG), we suggest acknowledgement of the source of funding (if applicable) should be indicated on the poster.
      

2. Free poster printing, set-up poster and important dates

4. Live demonstration

   • You can bring handouts, pamphlets or supplementary materials in order to assist participants to understand your innovative materials/ studies.

6. Facilitation

   • You are earnestly requested to attend to your poster and/ or demonstration stations during the poster presentation session on the date of Expo. The main purpose is to explain and demonstrate your teaching and learning project, development or project to any interested parties and answer queries. This is a good way to find new collaborators.

   • If you are not available to attend the poster presentation/ demonstration on the day, you can assign your delegate(s)/ colleague(s) to facilitate the session for you. In this case, you are encouraged to inform the Expo team about the arrangements as soon as possible. Make sure that the representative(s) knows about the arrangements of poster presentation.

   • You and/ or your delegate are welcome to bring along additional helpers to support the facilitation. However, the maximum number of all the facilitators for each station should be limited to 5. [Visitor Registration]
      

7. Best poster and/or demonstration award

   • An award will be given to the best poster whose poster presentation and/ or demonstration that best addresses the innovative projects/ strategies for teaching and learning. The results will be announced at the closing ceremony.

     Posters will be reviewed and scored based on the following criteria:

     1. Topic/ abstract/ videos - Addresses eLearning for teaching and learning purposes (promotion of innovation strategies that are transferable to multiple contexts).

     2. Poster content  - Explains the project clearly. If the project is still ongoing and evaluation results are not yet generated, more emphasis can be put on the explanation of objectives and approaches.
