'The Academic Pin-Up: How To Make A Superb Poster' 

Dr David Donaldson, Psychology

Cottrell 4B108, 2pm - 4pm
23rd March 2006

Academics present their work in a variety of ways, from published papers
to keynote talks. One very important but often neglected method of
disseminating work is via poster presentations. This session will
provide an introduction to the academic poster - how and why posters are
used at conferences and meetings. Students will be provided with a
selection of posters from real conferences and discussion will focus on
what discriminates a good poster from a bad one. Rather than focusing on
the mechanics of how to generate a poster, the session will be concerned
with how to communicate clear, concise and relevant information to the
intended audience.
