Ethos and Excellence Poster, Visual and Applied Learning Presentations
General Information
A poster is a written presentation of research findings by an individual or small group at an academic conference such as Ethos and Excellence. Visual and Applied Learning presentations could be in poster format or use other media.
- On the day of the live event, we ask all poster presenters to set up their materials by 9 a.m. in the Stackner Ballroom, and plan to leave them up through 3 p.m. Other displays should be set up from 9 a.m. through 3 p.m. as well, unless there are materials or equipment that cannot be left unattended.
- Each individual should plan a minimum one-hour timeframe during which they are expected to stand beside the display to engage in a discussion with attendees.
- The university provides the support board and easel; presenters must provide their posters. If you have a display that requires technology, tables, etc., please indicate that at time of registration.
Types of Posters
There are two types of poster presentations at the Ethos and Excellence Conference, but we encourage presenters to have their posters printed professionally.
- Pre-printed poster: Posters can be printed by Carroll University Campus Support Services Duplication printshop@carrollu.edu or an off-campus printing company. The cost of poster printing is covered by the individual unless their program indicates otherwise.
- Handmade poster: Posters are usually made by the individual and research information is typically pasted directly to the tri fold poster board. The poster board is provided by the individual.
Posters can be any size and made of any material. We encourage presenters to have their posters printed professionally and the size of the poster to be 48"(w) and 36"(h). Although this is not a requirement, we suggest this size so that the pre-printed posters fit on our provided boards and easels.
