Presentation Types
View an overview of presentation formats and requirements for the Celebration of Scholarship and Creative Activity. If you’re unsure which presentation type to choose, please consult your faculty mentor.
Poster
Posters are the most common presentation type, and most students in math and natural sciences, social sciences, nursing and similar disciplines choose this form of presentation. If you plan to present a poster, please see Poster Design Guidelines for deadlines, contact information, a poster template, requirements and design tips. Posters are set up in the morning and remain on display for viewing during the duration of the day. You or a member of your group must be present from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.
Visual Art Exhibit
Visual Art (painting, sculpture, etc.), will be displayed in the Reeve Union Ballroom. The visual art must remain on display for viewing during the duration of the day. You or a member of your group must be present from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Visual art presenters are strongly encouraged to provide their own small table tent that includes their name and the artwork title. Consider providing a handout that describes the creative process.
Podium (Oral) Presentation
Podium presentations are another common presentation type, often chosen by humanities students and those in similar fields. Podium presenters will be assigned a room in Reeve Memorial Union. Please allow 15 minutes (maximum) for the presentation, including Q & A. Each room will be set up with a head table, tabletop podium and audience seating. Rooms will be equipped with a Windows® laptop and a projection screen for PowerPoint® presentations. All PowerPoint® presentations need to be saved on a USB drive. Contact us if you have special equipment needs. Invite your faculty mentor.
Performance
If you will be presenting performing arts (film, dance, music, drama, etc.), you may choose a performance presentation. List the presentation type and special needs on the submission form so we can assign an appropriate location and help locate necessary equipment. Please allow 15 minutes (maximum) for performance presentations, including Q & A. Presentation methods are at the discretion of the presenter(s). Invite your faculty mentor.
