Resource talk:How to create an award-winning academic poster

The explanation in this article is very complete. In making posters we need to emphasize important aspects such as fonts, colors, images, information and add some information that needs to be highlighted to attract readers' interest. In addition, in making posters that aim to win the competition, we also need to think about the unique aspects of the posters that we will make. One of the unique aspects that need to be considered is by modifying the latest topics that are being discussed, for example when there is a new topic such as the launch of the latest iPhone series, we can use that topic as the material for our poster by using the image. However, we still need to pay attention to the correctness of the content in the poster, as well as to check repeatedly to avoid misinformation or wording. By doing these things the possibility of our poster can stand out from other posters is getting bigger.

Additional thought on creating award-winning academic posters

I love how this page describes that creating an academic poster is not a one-man work. In my opinion, group work represents all the group members' perspectives and ideas. While improving the message that would be delivered in the poster, the feedbacks and ideas from each member would become the robust foundation for the project vision. The appealing aspect is a must in the design process and we also need to add an identity that will become our unique value while maintaining the best appealing deliverables we could give (Santoni, Binus University).

This article showed one of the most important aspects of making a poster and that is simple and eye-catching. Referring back to the article they said that long winded posters with boring aesthetics are often overlooked. Additionally, I think it was a great idea to get any opinion on the poster from as many people as possible so you are appealing to the masses.
