 Author(s) of each accepted poster abstract is required to:

Notes on Preparing Poster Presentation

1. Designing a poster

  • Submit a poster of 90 cm (width) X  140 cm (height) in JPEG(.jpg) or PDF(.pdf) format. Save the print file without bleed marks.

  • Colour specification: CMYK (Cyan-Magenta-Yellow-blacK) colour model.

  • Make sure the abstract title, name of the author(s) and affiliation on the poster.

  • Using columns is a good idea. Consider arranging the content of your poster in a number of columns, beginning at the left-hand side of the board.

  • A brief introduction, clear explanation of the project/ teaching and learning strategy, and evaluation results (if available) should be clearly displayed on the poster.

  • Focus on a few main points using clear and sufficient graphics.

  • Consider using outlines or dot points for the poster presentation.

  • Use a clear and readable font size.

  • Please confirm the images that you provided are high enough in resolution and do not contain any copyright infringement materials.

  • If the project is funded by a university/ external grant (e.g. UGC, TDLEG, CDG), we suggest including an acknowledgement of the source of the funding on the poster.

  • More poster design examples are avaliable at our previous event archives:

2. Submitting poster for your presentation

  • Upload the soft copy of poster to cloud storage platform, e.g., Office 365 OneDrive, Google Drive, and submit the shareable link to the working team by 23 November 2023 (for those authors who will NOT participate in the poster awards). An online form for poster submission will be provided to authors and presenters of accepted abstracts later.

  • The submission file should be named with submission ID and the name of first author.

3. In-person poster presentation

  • You are earnestly requested to attend to your poster and/ or demonstration stations during the poster presentation session on 5 December 2023. The main purpose is to explain and demonstrate your teaching and learning project, development or project to any interested parties and answer queries. This is a good way to find new collaborators.

  • If you are not available to attend the poster presentation on the day, you can assign your colleague(s) to facilitate the session for you. In this case, you are encouraged to inform the event team about the arrangements as soon as possible. Make sure that the representative(s) knows about the arrangements of poster session.

  • If you are planning to request an extra area to set up live demo, e.g., VR/AR, installation/device(s) could not be placed on classroom desk, contact the working team by the end of October 2023 for further arrangements.
