Here is a link to the poster presentation PPT. template
The specific text boxes are pre-sized to fit either a normal 8.5X11 or 11X17 page. These are the pages that our copiers can handle.
As for a title, you can send it to me and I can help format it.
Your presentation should address the following:
Summary of the Problem
Background Research
Current Methods
Your Design Goals
Iterative Process (Highlighting Data Collected and/or Feedback from CAOC)
Next Steps
Here is a link to Emma Lee's FINISHED poster for the STEM Symposium. The second page is the draft she used to print out the individual pages.

Student Research Blogs
The goals of the student research blog are to :
1) Have an online, public-accessible location to store research and show progress of your project throughout the year
2) Use the blog as a template that will eventually translate into your poster/research paper
3) Be able to reference this source to mentors, colleges, other makers, etc.

I would recommend using BlogSpot as it syncs nicely with Google. If you want to make up a new email address so that you and your group members have access, awesome. If you would like a generic WT email address, I have access to those as well. When signing up for BlogSpot, consider the name of your blog. Some of the website names above are good, some not. Make is specific, slightly descriptive, but not weird.
The home page for the blog is where you can post information that is ordered by date. You may wish to just post current information, cool articles you find, interesting pictures of successes or failures, etc. You must have the following pages on your blog
Background research - summarize the articles you have read and link any/all sources.
Tutorials - Since a lot of what we do is DIY, you will find YouTube tutorials, webpages that walk you through some procedure (i.e. soldering something or using a cool feature in Inventor) and/or forums you go to for help. Provide a short description and link those sites here. You will eventually create content in the form of tutorials here as well.
Visual Log - Screen shots of CAD Models, pictures of prototypes, videos of you showing off prototypes or testing designs. Again, short description for each, including the date.
Design Process- Basically a flow chart of how you plan to tackle each design aspect of your product. What is your first goal to accomplish? How did you go about accomplishing it? What will you move to next?
City as Our Campus Mentor Info - Notes on meetings you have with your mentor. Highlight feedback given (pictures could be used here as well), new ideas formed, new skills learned (i.e. something at TechShop), visits to specific places (like Union O&P).
Data - This will be blank, but will eventually show the data you collect that will suggest if your prototype works. Some will be qualitative - it doesn't fit or it broke. Some will be quantitative - it generated 2.5 amps.
Due November 16th.
