    How to present the posters?

    1) Let us try to convene on Monday December 4 on time at 11 o'clock in room 103b (ground floor, next to the big Aula), the posters will be exhibited in the corridor gallery adjacent to the room

    2) Each group will get a chance to present their work in front of the poster in the corridor, please keep your presentations under 10 mins; you can choose one or more selected speakers to represent the group, or all participate in your presentation

    3) the presentations will be clustered in three "panels" each followed by a joint round of questions and comments, we will unveil the running order just at the beginning of the event

    4) the event will be divided in two blocks, from 11-12:30 and then from 13-14:00 with a light lunch during the break; the refreshments will be provided by the organizers and served in the seminar room


    ___________________________________

    Students will participate in group assignments in the form of poster presentations, presented in an open-space mini-conference format on site of the Jinonice campus on Monday, 4.12.2023.

    In the form of a poll open here between October 12 and October 30, students will be able to choose from among ten groups elaborating a project on one of the significant Themes of Transnationality connecting the present and past, defined by the teachers of the course.

    The task completion will take place between November 1 and November 28 and consist of three milestones each group will have to match via partial submissions through a module here in Moodle (one submission per group each time). The final version of the poster will be submitted by November 28. The program administration will handle the printing of the posters.

    How to approach the poster topic?

    - Think about relevant or pressing contemporary issues within your selected themes and try to project them into the scope of transnational history.

    - You can approach the topic from conceptual or empirical perspectives, combine those, or even bring a new experimental angle

    - The ratio of visual vs. textual information is up to you, but bear in mind that a standalone poster has to be able to communicate a narrative

     - Please use the fora provided below to mark down your discussion and progress; we would like to see all of the working group members contributing

    - Below, you can also find some examples of posters prepared by various international BA and MA student groups in several different courses; do not take those as literal templates rather identify what you like or dislike about their content and design

    How to format the posters?

    It would be ideal to adapt the quality and format of the used text and graphic material to approximately the dimensions of 1.5 m x 1 m printed on canvas. Bear in mind:

    1)      Font sizes

    2)      Quality of photographs

    3)      The graphic design overall

    As for content, each poster has to include:

    1)      Title

    2)      Subtitle: (Optional)

    3)      Your names 

    4)      We recommend four narrative blocs: introductory, content & examples, summarizing (depends on your approach)

    5)      Sources/bibliography

    6)      Logos of the institutions: EPS, Institute of International Studies, Charles University

    7)      Visual elements (photographs, pictures, graphs, archival documents, maps, etc.) – all annotated with sources (Follow the copyrights!!!)
