2009 Student Participant Requirement
EXHIBIT: Project or
Research
Each group of students participating in
the conference is expected to bring
a tabletop
exhibit
about a forest-related project or research they are
conducting that addresses one or more of the conference
tracks of forest and climate change, forest invasive
species, or forest land-use issues.
We've put together a list of
RESOURCES
you can consult in the process of developing your
project or conducting your research.
EXHIBITS should contain the following information:
- Project or Research Title
- School Name
- City
- Ultimate goal of the effort, including its
importance
- Brief explanation of the
project or research, including the process used
to
complete it
- Summarized results
- Any conclusions, recommendations, actions
taken, and next steps
- Photographs and images of the
project - use whenever possible
EXHIBIT HALL OVERVIEW
-
Groups will be provided with a 2'
by 6' table on which to place
their materials. All exhibits must be free-standing.
No wall space or easels will be available.
-
At minimum, each student exhibit MUST include a poster
display.
Accompanying items should enhance the display. Ideas include equipment
used in in the project (if applicable), handouts, maps,
charts etc.
-
Computer-based resources can be
used to enhance the exhibit but cannot be the only
part of the exhibit.
-
Electricity is NOT available.
-
Your exhibit should be hosted by
at least one representative from your group at all
times during the exhibit session. Take turns so
everyone has an opportunity to visit the other
exhibits.
-
On the day of the conference,
reviewers will visit each exhibit. They will provide
written feedback to each group. Reviews will be
based on how well each exhibit meets the guidelines
above.
-
Students participating in the
conference will vote for their favorite exhibit
based on educational content and creativity. An
award will be given to the winning group.
