Key recommendations include using an outline slide to structure the presentation, writing in point form rather than sentences, employing consistent backgrounds and fonts, proofreading for errors, and closing with a summary and question slide.
This document discusses the importance of dealing successfully with people. It argues that 90% of people fail in life due to an inability to deal with people. Influencing people is described as an art rather than a gimmick. Several key points are made about human egos and how to satisfy others' egos in order to have smoother relationships and make others feel important. Feeding others' egos through praise, recognition and appreciation is recommended as the quickest way to improve dealings with people.
Irrespective of background (be it business, career, academics or any field that requires one to convey/sell ideas, to make a pitch and in general to communicate to a group with people), this is a preparatory (beginner level) material on ever-essential presentation skills.
The document provides guidance on writing an effective essay plan in 3 steps: 1) Create a list of ideas and relevant historical facts. 2) Refine the list into paragraphs that will structure the essay. 3) Draw boxes for each paragraph and fill them with the main idea and 2-3 supporting facts for each. Planning helps write more logically, coherently, and faster. Examples are given for each step to illustrate how to plan an essay on economic development in the USSR under Stalin.
This document discusses technical writing and compares it to other types of writing. It defines technical writing as writing that transfers information about a topic to audiences with varying levels of knowledge to ensure clear understanding. The document notes technical writing is practical, has defined audiences and purposes, and uses effective language. It also provides qualities needed for technical writers, such as writing skills, training, language abilities, teaching skills, and professionalism. Finally, it discusses how jargon is formed through new words, borrowing terms, and appropriating common language.
The document discusses effective note-making strategies. It defines note-making as an active process of reading, questioning, evaluating, summarizing and paraphrasing information from written sources and lectures. The key reasons for note-making are to organize information for revision, act as memory hooks for retention, and aid in understanding complex ideas. Effective note-making involves surveying materials in advance, posing questions, actively listening and writing down key points and summaries in your own words during lectures and readings. Notes should be reviewed shortly after to reinforce learning and address any gaps.

The Science of Visual Design: Creating Strong Graphics for IDJames Washok
As an instructional designer with a background in graphic design, I see a lot of poorly created materials due to the lack of an understanding of the of the SCIENCE behind visuals.
This document discusses visual design basics and principles. It defines visual design as focusing on aesthetics through strategic use of colors, fonts, images and other elements. It provides examples of good and bad design, highlighting important design considerations like color palette, typography, media use, hierarchy, white space and layout. Gestalt principles of perception and using design to enhance engagement are also covered. The document aims to educate on scientific and user-centered approaches to visual design.
The document provides guidance on desktop publishing and design best practices. It discusses pre-planning questions like objectives, audience, and deadlines. It covers design elements like layout, balance, headings, images and calls to action. It also addresses technical specifications around files, resolution, raster vs vector images, and finding quality stock photos while ensuring proper licensing. The overall document aims to help users effectively plan, design and produce high-quality printed materials and publications.
The document discusses the concepts of layout and design in newspapers. It defines layout as the arrangement of texts and graphics on a page, including the selection of font styles, sizes, and colors. Good layout establishes an overall appearance, allows for a smooth flow of information, and makes the content easy to read. Key aspects of layout mentioned include page margins, image and figure sizes and positions. Design is described as a plan that shows how a newspaper will look and function. The document emphasizes that good layout and design are important for readers to easily understand content, and for organizations to effectively communicate their message. It notes several principles of good design, such as using minimalism, good color schemes, consistent fonts, and alignment of elements.
Posters are an effective method of presenting academic work or research in progress and, because some information is better presented visually, a poster may be more memorable than a verbal presentation. A poster presentation may be a required assessment task for undergraduate or postgraduate students. Posters are often included in the scientific program of a conference, and are usually displayed during a conference with times allocated for presenters to be available to discuss their content with attendees. A poster is an excellent way for beginning presenters to introduce their work to their peers. This also allows for valuable networking opportunities.
Before starting your poster Consider your audience: their interests and/or academic level. Allow enough time to plan and produce it. A good poster takes time. Know the presentation requirements including: poster dimensions; method of display; any mandatory content inclusions or presentation details; or if handouts are required as part of the presentation. Know the evaluation criteria for both the abstract (if required) and the poster. Critically review other posters for design, clarity, layout and overall quality. Consider different methods of production. These can range from cut and paste to a professionally developed and computer-generated poster.
This document provides guidance on designing effective conference posters. It emphasizes keeping the poster clear, concise and well-organized with a visual hierarchy. Key tips include cutting body text to under 1000 words, using design principles like contrast and alignment, and considering typography, color schemes, graphics and layout. The goal is to attract readers from a distance and communicate your message in a glance. Resources for images, templates and tutorials are also listed.
This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Editor's Notes
So you may be wondering, why a poster? Posters allow you to communicate the main ideas of your work in a clear, easy to understand, visual format. A poster isn’t meant to cover a topic in detail – that’s what papers are for – but to give you a chance to start discussions about what you’re working on and what you discovered while working on it.
Since a poster is a visual medium, there are a number of things to keep in mind when designing it.
Readable
Make sure there is a logical flow to your ideas and that you lay them out in order. It’s okay to label sections on your poster to make it easy to follow your thought process – in fact, it’s encouraged! You don’t want people to have to work at figuring out what you’re trying to say or how you made connections between one idea and the next.
When writing the text of your poster, keep the language simple and proofread it for spelling and grammar errors. There is a place for long, grandiose, flowery sentences, but it’s not on a poster. You want your audience to be able to understand you without a looking things up in a dictionary, so keep your sentences simple. Bullet points are highly encouraged.
Legible
You could have the most well-written, easy to understand text on your poster, but no one is going to pay attention to it if they can’t read it. Watch your font sizes, font style choices, and coloring choices.
Well Organized
This goes back to what I mentioned about having a logical order to your thoughts. Be sure the order in which you place things on your poster makes sense – don’t make it so they have to solve a puzzle in order to understand what’s going on.
Succinct
You only have 10 seconds to grab someone’s attention, so use it well! Make sure your title gets to the heart of your topic and make it stand out on the page – make it nice and big and bold. Keep the amount of text to a minimum – people often grasp concepts faster through the use of graphics, so use as many charts, graphs, and pictures as you can. Finally, don’t attempt to include all the details! Again, that’s what papers are for. Posters are to give an overview of the concepts and spark conversation, not give an in-depth look at the topic.
Now that we’ve gone over some of the design elements, there are a couple of things to keep in mind once you’re ready to sit down and start working on your poster.
You should have a greater than or equal amount of images as compared to text. A good rule of thumb is 30% text, 40% graphics, 30% space
Decide what the main message is. What’s the point you’re trying to make? Focus on that, and don’t include all the details! Stick to the main points. Keep it as short and easy to understand as possible.
Remember you’re trying to capture an audience here. Large blocks of text are hard to read and will often turn people away from your poster. Make sure the main points are clear and if you absolutely must have a lot of detail, shift the details onto a handout to accompany the poster. You can talk about the details when people approach the poster and ask you questions. Also be sure that you are using language that the audience will understand – don’t use words from a specific discipline if your audience won’t understand them. Keep it simple, easy to read, and easy to understand or you’ll lose them.
Remember, posters are visual. Clear, easy to understand graphics will take you a lot farther than text.
Put the most important item at the top center position. This is the title slot – so make sure it’s descriptive of your topic. Then follow the progression outlined here. It’s important that your title and name be placed in the top center position as that will be seen in the first 10 seconds a person looks at your poster.
Columns are the most common type of layout. Most often I see 3 or 4 columns.
Organize your material into clearly marked sections.
Don’t forget to leave white space (blank space) around the sections to make it easy to read and to highlight important information.
Space is important! Leave a margin around your poster – it’s very difficult to read posters that go all the way to the edge of the paper. Be sure to do the same thing between bullet points, around graphics, and around sections of text. Without the white space people won’t be able to make sense of the information – they’ll find it too cluttered and walk away.
Sketch out your poster on paper
Check for sizing and spacing
Limited space
Do not single space your text! Remember what I’ve been saying about white space – you need it to make your poster readable
Use indentations and bullets for lists and don’t be afraid to justify your test – it often makes it fill the space better.
Don’t be afraid to use bullets!
That said, there are certain elements that all posters need to have on them. These include:
Title – nice and bold at the top
Principal investigators name
Other authors if applicable and affiliation of each
Department and school name, addresses of school and other institutions
These are often located right under the title
The bulk of your poster area will usually be taken up by:
Abstract, introduction, materials & methods, results, discussion, conclusion, future directions, references, acknowledgements, logos
Now, this is a typical list for most scientific posters, so you may or may not be including all of these items. Think about which sections are most appropriate for your project and include them.
Use color, but be careful when you do! Don’t use colors that are difficult for people to view for a long time, such as neon colors. Use it to highlight important information. Proper color contrast will reduce eye strain and make the poster more legible and interesting visually, but using it wrong will decrease the impact of your data and turn people away
When you do use color, don’t go overboard! Not everything has to be color – use it mixed in with black and white.
Avoid lots of patterns or motifs.
Dark backgrounds are okay, but be careful using them because it’ll often make your poster more expensive to print.
Choose your font wisely! You want a Sans-serif font that is easy to read and that most printers would be able to print. Using multiple fonts can be distracting, so stick to one (maybe two) and use things like sizing, italicizing, coloring, and bolding to make the text pop where needed. While using color to make your text pop is good, be careful about your color choices to make sure they are easy to read and don’t clash with your background.
Posters are large and read at a distance, which means your font sizes need to be much larger than usual. If you’ve set your slide size to the size of the poster try zooming in at a 100% and stepping a few feet back from your screen. If you can read it easily, then you’re in good shape.
Here are some minimum guidelines on font sizes.
Title: 60 point bold
Researchers and affiliations: 48 point
Section headings: color of your choice, 30 point bold
Text: black, 24 point
Figure, graph and table captions: black, 20 point
References and acknowledgements: black, 20 point
Photo/image credit: black, 14 point
Will have to go larger for larger posters
Be sure to place related items next to each other so that people can easily see how your images relate to each other and the text around them.
Don’t be afraid of color – greyscale images don’t pop.
Be sure to include captions on your images that explain what they mean.
High quality images – can always make something smaller without losing quality but not larger.
While I encourage the use of graphs, charts, and tables, be sure they’re not overly complex and cluttered. Use color to help make your point and make them stand out. Fine patterns won’t be seen, so stick to colors and bold patterns.
Graphs are generally better to use than tables, but if you do use a table keep it compact. Don’t be afraid to use color or shading in your charts to make them pop.
Graphs are generally better to use than tables, but if you do use a table keep it compact. Don’t be afraid to use color or shading in your charts to make them pop.
Be sure to give yourself plenty of time to design your poster. A poster is a visual medium, and so you’ll have to spend time not only writing but also creating graphics and laying them out in an easy to understand fashion. Give yourself a few days to work on it. If you’re waiting for data that’s going to come in at the last minute, leave a space in your design for it and add it once it’s ready – don’t wait for it.
Choose your design software wisely. Use something you’re comfortable with – you’re going to have plenty of work creating the poster, you don’t want to be fighting with the software too. We recommend Microsoft PowerPoint due to its ease of use.
The average person looking at your poster will spend less than 10 minutes on your work, and you only have 10 seconds to get their attention. Cluttered, crowded posters that try to convey too much will turn people away. If you’re thinking you have too much on your poster, you probably do. Edit things out and move on.
Don’t forget to save your work periodically and in the proper format! At KSL we can only print pdf files, so if you’re using us to print bring one of those. Other printers may also accept .jpeg files, but saving your poster as such will often reduce the quality.
Before your print, have someone proofread your work! If they’re confused, then you’ll have some more work to do to clarify your points. Pay attention to what isn’t necessary – for posters less is more!
Test print your poster on a regular sheet of paper. You can do this easily in powerpoint by scaling your poster to fit on letter size paper. Don’t change any of the other settings or it might change your poster!
When you’re ready to print there are several places on campus that can help.
Remember it takes time for things to be printed! Turn in your file for printing a few days ahead of time to avoid rush fees.
When getting ready to present your poster, you may want to want to prep a short presentation or elevator pitch to go with it so you’re ready when people approach to talk to you about your work.
While all of this is a lot of work, don’t forget that it will pay off in the end. You’re showing off something you spent a lot of time on – have fun with it! Take time to enjoy talking to people and try to get a chance to interact with others. This is your work, be enthusiastic about showing it.
