Designing and Presenting an Oral Poster Presentation for Undergraduate Students' Research
Natural Sciences Education, v54 n1 e70018 2025
Designing and delivering an oral poster presentation is becoming very common for undergraduate students to showcase their research, whether it be in conferences, symposiums, and/or poster sessions; however, there is limited published evidence on how to successfully develop and make a presentation. This article demonstrates how undergraduate students can prepare, and eventually present, their research by effectively engaging their audience, and it also provides qualitative evidence of how successfully undergraduate students have achieved these goals. Among the advice provided to undergraduate students, as outlined in this paper, 10 easy steps are recommended to help undergraduate students present their research in a novel and engaging way to enhance the impact of their oral presentation. Steps 1-5 focus on preparing undergraduate students to design their posters, and steps 6-10 focus on presenting their posters.
