Recommendations for preparing the presentation:

  2. The presentation should follow the structure of the abstracts for each type of paper.
  3. Observe the “6×6″ rule for text slides: 6 words per line and 6 lines per slide.
  4. Use the “4×7″ rule for table slides: maximum 4 columns and 7 rows per table.
  5. Limit the use of abbreviations in text slides and tables.
  6. Use a font size between 18 – 22 points.
  7. Avoid using CAPITAL LETTERS and italics in text slides, which do not make them more readable.
  8. Avoid the “rainbow” effect: do not use more than 3 different colours for text slides.
  9. Avoid special effects saturation: the abuse of effects (movements in PowerPoint) tires the audience and diverts attention to the form rather than the content.
  10. Do not exceed a factor of 1.5 to the number of slides in the number of slides: 12 slides maximum for an 8-minute presentation.

Development of the session: The screening of the video of your paper will be shown at a date and time to be notified to you at a later date. The screening of the videos will be followed by a Q&A session, so you will need to attend in person to participate in this debate.
