Presentation tips

Text vs Visuals Balance

The poster above is text-heavy because it was designed to stand alone in the hallway of our school. Still, thinking visually about it was a long process that took time to refine.

Designing a poster and creating visuals can take a long time. There are a lot of tools you can explore to help you. I am also looking into getting support through the College for graphic design.

These are 4 very rough sketches of research findings I need to put on a poster for @CNIE_RCIE that needs to be printed early next week. I might try to hand draw them or create them in a program. Any suggestions for how? Each has quotes inside. @hj_dewaard @giuliaforsythe pic.twitter.com/19ka45cWUa
