March 5th & 7th- Poster Presentation Week!

On both Tuesday and Thursday of this week we presented our posters that we had done. Some students chose to do it on what they had already presented in their powerpoints, but others chose to do it on completely different topics. 
The poster was to "stand on its own" without needing a lot of text. The maximum words allowed on the posters was 200 words. I found this a difficult task, but after completing my poster I felt that it was able to get its point across without being to wordy. 

In Tuesday's class, we presented our posters to our classmates in a conference-style set up. One person would come up to your poster and you would explain it. I enjoyed this style the best as I found it was the best way for everyone to learn about each topic, however after an hour of giving the same spiel I felt like it was losing its meaning towards the end. In Thursday's class we went and looked at each poster individually and then gave feedback, which we will be receiving back in the near future. Overall, I felt this was another great way to learn about each topic and I really enjoyed this learning style!

I have attached my poster, which I used to the text boxes and pictures to form an Inukshuk :)
