Description
As a major aspect of academic publishing, posters are an integral part of almost every scientific conference. Their purpose is to highlight and visualise research results as effectively as possible and invite discussion. The two-part workshop focuses on the conveyance of design and presentation skills and on the practical training how to apply these skills for an effective science communication.
The first part of the workshop covers the key principles of design such as typography, colour, proportion, balance, visualisation etc. Participants also learn how to conceive and develop a clearly structured poster
by reducing the scientific content to the most significant points. The second part takes essential presentation skills into focus, such as main aspects of verbal and non-verbal communication, dramaturgy, structure, clarification, reduction. The seminar is rounded off with the training of short poster presentations in a virtual setting combined with a video recording and constructive trainer and group feedback.
Methods:
lectures, group work, practice sessions, pitch presentations, video recording, feedback
