This page is intended to provide guidelines and links to resources for practicum presentations. Guidelines listed here must be adhered to unless superceded by instructions from your faculty supervisor.
Poster Preparation Guidelines
- The recommended tools for preparing a poster are PowerPoint and a large format printer (42 inch max) at the Instructional Technology Services in Forcina Hall 111. An example procedure would be as follows:
- Purchase a poster board (e.g., at the TCNJ Bookstore, Triangle on US1 in Lawrenceville, a large art store). One of the standard poster board sizes is 22 x 28 (inch). However, you may use a larger size, e.g., 32 x 40.
- Create a single-page new PowerPoint file. Set the paper size based on your poster board. Store your poster on your H drive or under the "www" directory so that it can be accessed remotely.
- Print the poster in room 004 of the (new) library.
- Laminate the poster to protect it.
- TEMPORARILY mount your poster on the poster board, e.g., using tape. The reason it must be mounted temporarily is so that your poster can be removed from the board and displayed on the walls of the hallway on the second floor of Holman Hall.
- For more information about preparing your poster:
- Your faculty supervisor will comment on your poster drafts. You must have your poster approved for the final presentation to receive credit for your mentored research / internship experience.
Platform Presentation Guidelines
- The recommended tool for preparing a platform (oral) presentation
is PowerPoint.
- Many of the poster presentation guidelines above apply to
platform presentations as well, so:
- The above links will help ensure that you have covered all the important criteria for an effective presentation.
- Practice multiple times so that you can finish within the designated time. The faculty session supervisor will terminate your presentation when the time comes. You must respect the overall scheduling process and also the presenters after you.
- Limit the number of slides to approximately one slide per minute
(e.g., 15 slides max for a 15-minute presentation).
- Store your PowerPoint file under the "www" directory so that it can be accessed remotely, without logging in to your Novell account.
- Your faculty supervisor will comment on your presentation. You must have your presentation approved for the final submission to receive credit for your mentored research / internship experience.
