Community Engagement Project Posters
Overview
Poster presentations create a visual display that is appealing, well-organized, and representative of your project. Community engagement project posters should connect your classroom learning to your experience in the community. Successful poster presentations identify where your community engagement and academic knowledge intersect and situate your experience within a theoretical framework, community contexts like local or national policies or issues, or an academic field or discipline. Below are key questions you will want to consider as you design and develop your poster presentation.
- How did you approach your project? What problem(s) or issue(s) did you encounter?
- What are the communal, political, and/or academic contexts of your project?
- Who is your audience? What elements of your topic or experience may be of value to others?
- What is the significance or value of project? What does your project contribute?
- What are the possible next steps?
Successful posters should engage your audience, providing context and creating a conversation about your project and its impact. For more help writing and developing your poster presentation, check out the resources listed below.
