All<\/em> students are invited to participate in the symposium. Our goal is to put together a vibrant showcase of student research and talent. We welcome traditional research projects, internship or clinical placement reports, and a diverse array of creative projects, including writing, studio arts, musical performance, and drama.<\/p>\n Individual and group projects are welcome. Students interested in participating must submit a short Participation Form\u00a0and prepare a poster, digital project, oral presentation, or creative work to be shared the day of the symposium.<\/p>\n Students generally participate in one of 4 ways:<\/p>\n Get in touch if your project falls doesn’t fit into any of the categories above! We will try our best to accommodate your idea and needs.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n Students are required to provide a project title and an abstract, summary, or artist statement when completing the participant form. These details will be featured in the symposium program. We encourage you to collaborate with your faculty sponsor, site supervisor, or a librarian to refine your title and abstract, summary, or artist statement before submitting your application. After submission, library staff may reach out to assist with any necessary edits.<\/p>\n Title: <\/strong>Your title should be brief and to the point, providing a clear indication of the topic or focus of your project.<\/p>\n Digital\/E-Posters, printed, or tabletop posters are all acceptable formats for the symposium poster session.<\/p>\n Resources for standard research posters:<\/b><\/p>\n Student interns can either share a traditional research poster (if their internship included a research component) or a poster that focuses on the internship experience (suggested outlined below). We will also accept other project formats.<\/p>\n The purpose of an internship poster is to summarize the internship experience for an audience that might not be familiar with the field. Your poster can include the following content sections.<\/p>\n Contact librarian Young-In Kim (kimy@gcc.mass.edu<\/a>) if you need additional help preparing your poster. We are privileged to host the symposium annually thanks to our committed faculty, exceptional teachers who inspire and mentor our students towards outstanding achievements. Your students are encouraged to showcase capstone or other research projects, exceptional creative works, or any other work you feel is appropriate for the symposium venue. We welcome traditional research projects but also work that is non-traditional and\/or innovative. Dive deeper into the symposium and explore opportunities for engagement by tuning in to a Podcast Episode<\/a> from the Teaching, Learning, and Innovation Podcast<\/em>, hosted by Dr. Gary Ackerman.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n Please contact library@gcc.mass.edu for accessible versions of these archival documents.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n
