​Presentation Formats

40-70 Minute Panel Presentation (2-3 people, maximum 25 minutes each)
A panel presentation is a session focused on a particular theme or topic, with 2-3 panelists, each of whom will present their material, with a short time after each presentation, or at the end, for question and answer.  Proposals must include all panelists, with one title for the session, and one abstract for the panel topic. There will be no moderator.
 
 
40-60 Minute Presentation
A paper or presentation on one theme or topic delivered by one presenter, with a short time for question and answer at the end of the presentation. 
 
15 Minute “Boom Talk” Presentation
 A Boom Talk is a concise presentation on your topic, including a few sentences of summary and background, and then significant findings or implications of your research. Time is strictly enforced to 15 minutes, so get to the “so what?” quickly, and leave a minute or two for questions. Invite people to find you later in the conference for further discussion!
 
Poster Presentation
 A visual poster presentation may showcase the broad spectrum of your ongoing research, especially its more novel and exciting trajectories, or focus more narrowly on one line of argument you are currently exploring that is not yet at the more formal, paper proposal stage. Authors present their research using a visual medium with key information displayed on a 3’ x 4’ wide (approximately) free-standing bulletin board. Poster presentations should incorporate illustrative materials such as tables, graphs, photographs, and large-print text. Presenters share an oral summary of their research to conference attendees as they circulate the room. Please print your poster in advance.
