Student Showcase: Table Presentation Resources

Be sure to check the rubric for Table Presentations at https://www.niagaracc.suny.edu/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/NCCC-Student-Showcase-Table-Presentation-Rubric-2019.pdf !

A Table Presentation displays your project materials on a table likely placed in a hallway or other open area.

• Be prepared to describe your project in just a few minutes and to answer questions–probably to several people as they walk by your table throughout the session.
• Consider producing at least one text panel that explains the rationale/inspiration for the project and any relevant reflection on the result of the project. This will help viewers to understand your project when you are not available to discuss it.
• If you need an electrical outlet to power a lamp, laptop, microscope, or another safe electrical device you require for an effective presentation, please write that you require electrical outlet(s) in the REQUIREMENTS section of your application form.
• If you plan on including any 2-dimensional graphics (a map, photographs, 2-D artwork, or graphs), please be sure to specify your display requirements on your entry form (e.g., wall space size required, etc.).
• Project display materials may include a tri-fold poster, a laptop computer, or other objects. You may combine objects placed on a table and a poster displayed on the wall behind your table.
• You should plan to have any poster components of your table display available all day, but DO NOT leave your computer or other valuable objects on display when you are not present.
• You will be assigned a time to man your table (typically a one-hour time frame).
