3. Attending a Poster Session

Nesta Aula, foi visto como devemos entender as características de uma poster session, ler um pôster e  ampliar o vocabulário relativo a gráficos e quadros. So, we are still in a conference and  you are already went to the dinner, read about conference program, listened the Atendant of the conference, participed of some break session and now? What is your next step? In the class, We learn attending a poster session. So, our objectives learning is: To be familiar with the caracteristics of a poster session and layout; To revisit the concept of critical reading and; To be introduced to ways of asking questions in a poster session. But, what is a poster session? Is a session that runs parallel to other events. An opportunity for people to show the results of their research in an informal way (conversation). We can do workplace discussions, meet people  informally or a presentation in a meeting, all this about teaching training.  Academic issues and achievements are presented in a printed poster format that can be affixed to a wall, a display, a tripod, among others things. What does the presents do?  The presenter stands by the poster to answers questions of passing conference attendees and he can talk about 5,10 or 15 minutes about his research and may repeat his several times during the session. For Attending a poster session you should first attracted by the visual elements and the title. Then you need to make a choice: staying or leaving? How to decide? The teachers talking more about Critical Reading (information organization), the layout is very important when we do a critical reading. Recommended reading from left to right from top to bottom (more intuitive layout). Information itself should include: Examine the arguments presented, Check out any influences on the arguments, Check out the limitations of the study focus, Examine the interpretations made and decide if it is relevant to your  research. Was shown a structure of poster session formed for: title, name and contact details of the autor, Affiliation, academic event identification, introduction, methodology, results, conclusion, references, acknowledgements (agradecimentos). Also shown how reading graphs and charts, types and nomenclatures. And about language? What are you doing to listen? What might the presenter say? Greetings, introduction, main points, conclusion, thanks and inviting for questions. We can interact in a poster section doing questions etiquette. For it, we can use the WH questions that learned in another class (What, When, Who…). Also remembered yes or no questions (Could, is, do, have…). And for finish, was shown a video about poster sessions in a conference.
