Are you still in school and have to give a presentation soon? Then keep reading here about how a poster can be helpful for you.
You see posters almost everywhere around you: on the street, at bus stops, in cinemas and theaters, supermarkets, classrooms and even in politics, posters are regularly used as a tool for communication. With a poster you can get your message across to your audience in an original and creative way.
Bring your story across in pictures as well
If you want to give a presentation, it is a nice idea to use a poster. With a poster you make your presentation a lot more appealing. Alea-Sophie Küppers (24) made a poster with the makerspace. She studies Business Communication and Digital Media at Tilburg University. Alea-Sophie: "I had to present the outlines of my research in text and image on a poster to the rest of the class. I made my poster in Jilster's makerspace and then ordered it in large A0 size. The layout of the poster turned out really well and I even got extra points for it from the teacher."
Below you can see how Alea-Sophie's poster turned out. It contains all the basic elements: title, names of the researchers, research purpose, method, results, discussion and conclusion.

This is how you make a poster
It can be quite difficult to make a good poster. According to Alea-Sophie, it is important that at least the following points are included in your poster:
- The poster should be as concise as possible. The audience should be able to understand the essence of the message at a single glance.
- The poster must draw attention. You can take care of this, for example, by using a catchy slogan, image or certain type of color use on the poster.
- The poster delivers a clear message in as few words as possible.
- The texts on the poster are framed and placed in columns or blocks.
- The poster contains mostly visual information (think: graphs, drawings and pictures).
Helpful tip: On the Posters page you will find information and tips for making your own poster as well.
