• You only have 3 minutes for your presentation. Therefore, we suggest you consider this threeminute presentation as a summary of your research. Use material that will capture the audience’s interest, provide disclosure, introduce the research, provide an overview of the main question, problem, or objectives at the heart of your research.

Please bring a copy of your presentation along with you when you depart. Copy your PowerPoint and all movies to a folder on a USB flash drive. PowerPoint 2016 will embed movies by default, however you should still bring the videos just in case. All prior versions of PowerPoint will not embed the movies. They must all be placed in the same folder as your PowerPoint. It is a good practice to keep a second copy of your presentation and your movies in your luggage.
