Tips for Presenters
You must supply your own laptop computer for your presentation. Make sure you know where to attach your laptop computer to the LCD video
projector connection in the room in which you are presenting. The
presentation rooms will not have a live Internet connection.
Structuring Your Paper into a Presentation
- You have something to share with SIGUCCS participants, and they want
to
hear it. Outline the main ideas of your paper and decide how best
to present them.
- To enhance your presentation, create visuals. Limit the amount of
information on one screen to a single main idea.
- The text you use should be large and legible to those sitting in the
rear
of the room.
- To supplement your discussion, bring relevant handouts.
- Practice your presentation in front of an audience before you come to
Richmond. You will feel more comfortable with your content and your
delivery.
- Before you come to the Conference, review your session's
co-presenter's
paper(s), so you will know the other presentation topic(s) and how they
do (or do not) fit together with your topic. You may wish to discuss any
overlap or differences ahead of time to facilitate a smoother session
and set the stage for a productive discussion with your audience.
- Pace yourself to stay within the allotted time.
- Decide in advance how you will handle questions that arise during your
presentation.
- Plan some questions that your Session Chair can use to facilitate the
discussion about your topic.
When You Arrive at the Conference in Richmond
- Pick up your packet at the Registration Desk, review the
Conference Program,and determine the location and time for your
presentation.
- Attend the appropriate speakers' breakfast and introduce yourself to
your Session Chair.
