Tips on Creating Effective Poster Presentations
-
Catch their Attention: Use a clear and appealing title or header that captures the main idea of your poster.
-
Identify Yourself: Remember to indicate who you are, your credentials, and where you’re from.
-
Keep it Simple: Poster materials should be bullets of information that excite, engage, summarize, dramatize.
-
Use Graphics: Use graphs, charts, tables, pictures, and color text instead of plain text to illustrate key points.
-
White Space: Leave plenty of room to rest the eyes.
-
Stand Back: Everything on your poster should be legible from three feet away.
