Have you identified (or confirmed) your faculty mentor and align on the poster topic, scope, and intended audience?

Be sure to schedule a meeting and gather this information to help you prepare:

(1) a working title

(2) a 1–2 sentence purpose statement

(3) the type of evidence you’ll present (data, artifacts, literature synthesis, design/prototype, etc.).

(4) date for a follow-up

Poster Templates *DUE: March 9, 2026 (Monday)

Create a complete first draft in your poster. Aim for readability at 4–6 feet: large headings, short bullets, and minimal jargon. Please keep the background white. You may use colors within reason. Include a QR code linking to a handout, paper, or project page if appropriate.

PRESENTATION TIPS:

k_malin — 2026-02-06 15:25:29 UTC

Prepare two versions of your poster:

(1) a 2-minute overview for walk-by viewers

(2) a 5-minute deeper dive for judges/faculty.

Practice answering likely questions: methods, limitations, and implications for education.
