When you’ve thought about the how, you might like to think about the what. What is your topic and what is the purpose of your poster -is it to present an argument, report findings, convince an audience or promote a product? And how can you display this information to have the maximum impact? Who is your audience – will it be your tutor, experts, the general public, or your peers? And what will they be looking for – detailed information, argument or simply a brief summary? <\/p>\n\n\n
