GUIDES FOR PREPARING

e-POSTERS

 

e-Poster shall be prepared as a power point presentation. It should be attractive, well organized, self-explanatory and should present only the major ideas.  Do not overwhelm the audience with data or explanations.  The discussion should give the interpretation and significance of the results.  Try to give the viewer one or two important conclusions to take away from the session.  The following specific points may help you in the preparation:

 

Ø  Five to 10 slides should be used for the e-Poster presentation.

 

Ø  Use bigger font for the main title and smaller for the subtitle and author/s (minimum font size is 18).

 

Ø  In typesetting the text, use upper and lower cases.

 

Ø  Give a brief introduction stating the purpose of the study.  Minimize words while maximizing visuals.  End with a brief conclusion.

 

Ø  Graphs are preferable to tables.

 

Ø  e-Posters must be submitted on or before 1 June 2010 either through e-mail or in CDs.  The CD may be submitted in any of the following drop-off points:
