How to present Paper Presentation @ College Symposiums : Version 2.0

hello frnds,

This post is the continuity of my previous post How to present Paper Presentation @ College Symposiums

i was really tired of reading lot of comments requesting me to update the paper presentation with new ideas and latest news....

Since for the audience request im updating with this blog....

So i said the general procedure to do the paper in my previous blog.....

Now i ll specifically take a topic and say u how to update it.....

So if u see the current research in the world it has moved towards NANO TECHNOLOGY.... There has been a lot of improvements and ongoing developments in this fiels since last decade...

Let it be electronics or computer science or mechanical everryone researches in nano.

So with as inspiration i ll explain u all how to do paper in nano technology. If u google the nano technology research u ll get most of the topics related to nano robots or other wise in short called as nanobots..

If u judge this to be ur topic then google wat is the general definitons of nanobots....

Hopefully the first result will be from wikipedia .. Read and understand wat it is... After u finish this go on google about the latest topics in it.

U ll find that they did this for curing cancer or some disease. so u create a paper for curing some other disease or find the application of it in anyother field.. This purely has to come from one's consecutive research and thinking of this topics....

For this u can search in the google patents link... i Hope u remeber wat is the link otherwise here it s:

http://www.google.com/patents

Once u get the spark wat u need to do is continuous research for atleast a week in this idea.

That is first thing wat u shud do is to collect all the related database and then filter it as important , references. Once u do this u ll get an idea about wat else to do.....

In this nanobots u get collect the important topics to be as how is it used in various fields and applications.

And references may be like the details of cancer and the current treatments in it....

Thats it u are now ready with the ground works. Now wat u need to do is sort ur result in IEEE format..

Finish it and surely u ll make mistakes in the first four times then try to correct and once u prepare the second paper u would hav mastered the paper presenataion and u can write a blog like me too :D .....

If u hav any doubts surely u can write the comment or blog me....

Onstage Paper Presentation

I've already posted how to prepare a Paper for the paper presentation......

In this blog we will see how to present the paper on stage before the judges & audience and the way to impress them.

The first and foremost thing is that you should hav full knowledge about the paper you have prepared inclusive of the details away from the paper too....

Then prepare a PowerPoint Presentation (i.e.) a .ppt file having a gist of your paper...

The ppt is basically for the audience to know what you are talking about and at same time for yourself to know the order of what you gonna talk...

Never dump the whole thing in to the slide. If you gonna talk for 10 minutes the maximum slide should be from 8 to 10slides . And in each slide include onli the topics and the sub headings of the thing you are speaking at that time.

After preparing the slides synchronize it with the speech you are going to present.....

The judges will mainly look on the following things for judgin your presentation :

1. Significance of the work in terms of innovation and originality of work
2. Practical application emanating out of the work
3. Display of team effort

4. Creativity in overall presentation

The marks splitting for the presentation is

1. Originality - 10 marks


2. Clarity of topic - 10 marks


3. Outside knowledge of the topic - 10 marks


4. Answering to the queries - 20 marks

So the thing you concentrate on is that how much you compromise the judge in QUERIES...

And the most important thing you should note is that it is not Oratorical Competition i.e never give a speech, take it a lecture class and be cool enough to present the paper.....

All the best.....

Any more clarification leave a comment....

How to present Paper Presentation @ College Symposiums

Hello friends,

The most obvious question rises to a person when said about a Inter College Symposiums or An International or national Conference is that whether could I participate in and present a paper. But most of them stop only with thinking because there is no guidance of how to do it and the procedures to do it.

So I've decided my self to post about it here in this Blog. There are about 7 abstacles to cross before you come to the fruit of presenting paper.

Step (i) :Selection of the TOPIC

The first Step is that you should decide the Topic of your Interest..

As I'm from the field of Information Technology (Combination Of Computers and Communication), the topics/themes I would research on are :

• Image Processing and Printing (With a focus on mobile and web based printing solutions)
  

• Internet Based Communications

• Web Services

• Network Security

• Innovative Application Development using:

- J2EE Architecture

- Microsoft

- Freeware

• Analysis on Performance of Freeware Tools

• Cryptography

• Multimedia and Gaming

• Open Source Applications

• Multi-Core Architectures

• Server Virtualization

• Software as a Service

• Nano Technology

• Embedded Technology

• Software Testing

• Automated Software Testing of Applications

It is not a compulsion that you stick only to this topics.... Sky is the limit for your thinking.

Step (ii) : Researching

Research about the topics which you have chose. That is get all the information about the topic from the core of it to the latest trend in it...

There are various source of searching. Leaving out Google see the below links also for the search:

Google Patent Search

Wikipedia

Answers.com

So now you would have got a instinct or the spirit of innovation...... Now create a new idea of your in this field..

p.s: there are two types of paper you cant present. The first one is the presentation of your own idea that is your own research or innovation...... The second one is the review of the latest innovations and the way to improve it... The first one is the best, go for the second type only if you don't get the innovative idea.

Step (iii) : Abstract Preparation

Prepare an ABSTRACT of the idea you gonna do...

The format for the abstract is:
The abstract should not be longer than one page(i.e) approx:300-450 words.

Font - Times New Roman

Font size - 12pt

Line Spacing 1.5pt

All margins - 1”

Text Alignment - Justified

Remeber that your abstract Must outline the following very clearly:

• Objectives


• Methodology


• Major outcomes expected


• Practical implication

I've put up an sample abstract here.(This was one of my old paper)






Step (iv): Mailing the abstract

Once you have finished the abstract you should mail/send post to the corresponding address they have mentioned...

The way and medium of sending abstract differs from college to college.

And if the conveyor likes your abstract they will ask you to present the paper... This correspondence takes a time, so keep on working on the paper don't wait for them to reply.

Step (v) : Preparation of Paper

This is the most important time consuming and difficult step. Your paper should be prepared i such a way that it should consists all the things sorted in the following order..

Title

Introduction

Objectives

Review of Literature

Methodology

Findings and Analysis

Conclusions

Implication/Application

Limitations

References/Bibliography

Should not be more than 3500 words including references/bibliography.

Most of the Colleges' ask the paper in the IEEE format... I've posted it too here.. Click the belo link you cant get it.....

Thats it now you are ready with the paper and present it…
