Students will be available at their poster or display during their assigned session time on Friday, April 10, 2020, in a place to be assigned in the J.W. Marriott L.A. Live Hotel to discuss their research with conference participants. It is recommended that students prepare and practice a 3-5 minute summary about their project.
POSTER GUIDELINES
Dimensions of Posters:
Maximum size of poster should not exceed 48 x 36 inches to fit on TRI-FOLD
48 X 36 inch poster board on an easel. The tri-fold is 12", 24"
and 12".
Mounting:
Pushpins will be provided for affixing all poster materials to display
boards. Mounting on foamcore is NOT recommended; if you have such a poster,
you will need extra long pins (greater than 1 inch) to affix your poster.
NOTE: You may prepare a tri-fold cardboard poster if
you are specifically directed to do so by your advisor.
Printing of Posters: Posters can be printed at your home
university and transported to the conference; or, you should look into
identifying a Kinko's in or near the hotel to print your poster once you
arrive. Your home university may give you access to inexpensive poster-printing
facilities and suggest you investigate this printing option. If you decide
to print at the conference, we recommend that you check the costs of this
kind of printing because they can be expensive at commercial outlets.
Poster Design: Consider talking with your university media center or faculty advisor about techniques for poster design.
