Comments re posters:

1.Your poster is allowed to have 9 to 12 pages, A4 (standard), including references. The title may be on an additional page. Don’t overdo on text, make graphs large and colourful.

2. You can print your poster on any printer, no need to use “poster printing services”.

3. You may change the poster title (to better reflect the content), and you’re also allowed to change - to some degree - the scope of your project, depending on your researched material.

If you do so, please let me know, otherwise, I’ll assume that the title and scope are as on the project outline. No changes allowed after Monday, March 27.

4. Please set up your poster PRIOR TO THE POSTER SESSION. The poster boards shall be in place on Wednesday, March 29.

I strongly suggest that each poster be prepared by a team of 2 students.

Please try to find a partner with whom you can share the project’s topic and your work on the poster. Except for the poster preparation, other work on the project shall be done individually by each student, including the project’s outline, the project’ preparatory work, and the presentation at the poster session.

Pls see my suggestions for your research projects. There are at least twice as many topics as expected project teams, so you have quite a choice. You may also suggest your own topic for approval. If more than one team is interested in the same topic, I’ll try to find the solution.

Please sign in for a topic, preferably with a partner, prior to March 2.

The outlines (written individually, not as a team) are due on Thursday, March 9.

If you don’t write the formulas, input data, and steps of your calculations, and your answer is incorrect, you’ll get no partial credit for that question.

Always show intermediate steps in your calculations, not just the result.

Please write clearly. If your answers are un-readable, you’ll lose points.

Poster Session on Thursday, March 30
