This project incorporates the critical thinking and research writing skills you have practiced and refined over the semester and builds on all of the various assignments you have completed thus far.

To assist you in creating your poster, please review my research poster checklist. The rubric I will use to grade this project is directly related to this checklist.

 

Student Examples

Below you will find links to two outstanding examples of posters from students in past semesters using Canva. While it can be extremely advantageous to examine model examples of projects like this, it is important to know that these examples are here for inspiration and to help you conceptualize. They are not templates and your posters most likely will not, nor should they, resemble these examples. These examples are used with student permission:

The Many Benefits of Fasting (portrait style poster)
Alzheimer’s Disease and Diet (landscape style poster)

 

On a final note, your ability to develop a research poster is a sought-after skill in higher education and the job market. You will notice that professional conferences and employers showcase cutting edge ideas and developments by way of digital poster-sharing. Keep in mind that your competency in creating research posters will serve you well in your future endeavors!
