7 Components of A Scientific Poster Part Two
#4 Research Questions
The research questions are a central element of your scientific poster. In terms of content, place them after the motivation and in front of the main part of your poster.
To do this, you simply take over your research questions from your work. No more and no less. You can highlight them a little graphically because they're a central element.
#5 A Pinch Of Literature
If you want to create a scientific poster that should meet scientific standards, then you need one thing above all: scientific literature.
Normally, you already have a deep understanding of the literature on your topic due to the underlying work and can choose from a deep pool of literature. Do not use new literature for your poster, but identify the central works that are fundamentally important for the context of your work.
#6 The Methodical Design
The research design of your work is (hopefully) is in written form. For your poster, I would like to challenge you to refrain from this form of representation. Build your methodical design as a graphic, and your poster will stand out.
Trust me. If you manage to present your methodical approach in a clear process diagram (or similar) in an understandable manner, you are sure to receive an outstanding grade.
#7 The Results
What would a scientific poster printing be without results? Plan enough space to display yours. Under no circumstances should you deviate from your line and try to accommodate too much. There is no point in transferring entire tables or text blocks that make sense in the written version to your poster.
- What is the central result of your work?
- What added value do these results have for the discipline/seminar/practice?
