section consider using graphs, histograms, and
other visuals to display your data or stages in
the development of artwork, etc.

and the section below provide an overview of your
project so that the people reading your poster
know what you did, your central
research/scholarly question, relevant
background to your study, and the significance of
your project to advancing understanding.
(replace this text with your own) Be brief and
include only the most important findings from
your study and your interpretation of your data.
RECOMMENDATION Use graphics, pictures, and
other graphics to illustrate your findings. For
works of art, include high resolution images. ALL

Conclusions/Recommendations
(replace this text with your own) Briefly
identify significant findings. For projects that
are ongoing, include any early (preliminary)
findings or any promising aspects of your work.
For completed projects, consider identifying
next steps or future directions that the
research/scholarly/creative work might take.
Insert Tables or Images of artwork, etc.
GRAPHICS Clearly label graph axes, be simple,
and use colors that are easy to see against the
background. Photos are a good way to draw
attention to your poster. Be sure each photo has
a caption that explains what the photo is showing
and only use photos that illustrate your text.
Photos should be high resolution (about 1200 x
1800 pixels or larger). Avoid web images unless
they are of high resolution and okay for
educational purposes. Images obtained from the
web should include the source (credit). Avoid
use of clip art unless there is no other image
available. TIP Putting Boxes around your text
sections Add space between the edge of your box
and the text inside. Right click or Ctrl click
on text box, go to Format Shape, then select
Text Box and make sure your Internal Margins
are between .2 and .4 for all sides.
Insert graphic and captions. Include source of
graphics used from the web.
