Presenter Guidelines

Stage presentations:
  • Duration: 30 minutes each - 20 minutes for the presentation and 10 minutes of Q&A.
  • Materials: Presenters are asked to submit their (audio)visual materials (e.g. slides, video clips to be shown) to the conference's OSF page one week before the start of the conference, so that they can be prepared on the computer in the appropriate room of the conference venue before the start of every session. Presenters will also be requested to submit a bullet-point outline of your presentation, including important and/or infrequent technical vocabulary, about a week ahead of the conference to help our ASL interpreters with their preparation.
  • Hybrid modality: All presentations will be available onsite and virtually via Zoom. If you are presenting virtually/remotely, please find a quiet environment with a strong internet connection prior to starting the presentation. If you are presenting onsite/in-person, please be mindful of remote attendees, making sure that you can be seen/heard clearly.

Poster presentations:
  • Lightning Talks: Instead of a dedicated poster session, each poster presenter will be able to present a 5-minute lightning talk, followed by 10 minutes of Q&A. Lightning talks may optionally be supported by a brief slideshow (5 slides max, with an additional optional slide for references). All lightning talks will take place on Sunday, Nov. 11th.
  • Materials: Poster presenters are requested to upload a digital version of their poster to the conference OSF platform at least one week before the start of the conference (by 11/04). The submission link will be sent out as we get closer to the conference.
  • Poster Display: Posters should be no larger than 36x48 inches. Throughout the conference, posters will be displayed physically in the atrium where registration and coffee breaks take place. They will also be available for online viewing using our conference OSF platform. Discussion about these posters can take place during such coffee and lunch breaks, as well as asynchronously on OSF/Slack.
  • Hybrid modality: All presentations will be available onsite and virtually via Zoom. If you are presenting virtually/remotely, please find a quiet environment with a strong internet connection prior to starting the presentation. If you are presenting onsite/in-person, please be mindful of remote attendees, making sure that you can be seen/heard clearly.
  • Printing Posters: If you are travelling to Albuquerque in person, we invite you to print and bring your own hard-copy poster. If you are unable to print your poster, or if you will be presenting virtually but you still want your poster to be displayed in person, we can arrange for your poster to be printed here at the University of New Mexico. If you wish to make use of this service, please send your poster in a .pdf file to hdls@unm.edu no later than November 4th, with mention of which size you would like your poster to be printed in. You will be sent PayPal payment instructions as we receive your poster. The standard costs at UNM Copy Center for poster printing are as follows:
    • 36x48, color-printed -- $48
    • 24x36, color-printed -- $24
