Oral Presentations

• Your Power Point presentation must be pre-loaded on HWR's laptop on April 8 or April 9.  Bring your flash drive to download your presentation to Erma Santander in JWH 122!

• Keep a copy of your work on a flash drive and carry it with you to El Dia.

• Remember that you are addressing a cross-section of water professionals.  Make your topic understandable to others who may not be familiar with your area of expertise.

• Your talk should last about 12 minutes plus 3 minutes for QA time (total 15 minutes).

• You may choose to use a fixed microphone at the speaker podium or a microphone on your person.

• Speak into the microphone even when you are pointing out particular points on the screen, especially if you are using a fixed microphone on the podium.

• During QA time, first *repeat the question* clearly through the microphone and then give your answer.

Poster Presentations

• Print out the Presenter Services Request form and have your faculty advisor complete the information prior to scheduling your poster for printing.

• Your poster is limited in width (left to right) to not more than 5 feet.

• Your poster is limited in height (top to bottom) to not more than 3 feet.

• The plotter paper dictates these dimensions.

• Your research account can provide you with poster board for your poster.

• You should plan to set up your poster before 8:00 AM.

• You should plan to stand next to your poster during all scheduled Poster Sessions, morning and afternoon.

Above all, good luck and have a great experience presenting at El Dia del Agua! 

You represent the finest department of hydrology and water resources in the nation.

  Your work never ceases to amaze and inspire us!
