Guidelines for Parallel Presenters
PRE-SESSION PREPARATIONS
- Presenters:
must regularly check the conference microsite and their emails’ inbox or spam folders for the schedule of paper presentations and announcements;
may bring their own laptops for use in the parallel sessions;
may also bring with them the appropriate extension accessories such as adaptors, connectors, or audio jacks, if needed;
must inform the Conference Secretariat via info@amic.asia at least five days before the conference if their presentations have embedded videos;
must be aware that there might be limited to no internet access at the venue;
must be responsible for their own presentation materials; and
must be in their designated PARALLEL SESSION ROOMS at least 15 minutes prior to their schedules. This will allow them to test their presentation materials, including the audio and video equipment compatibility.
FORMAT OF PRESENTATION
Presentation material may be in Google Slides, Portable Data File, Microsoft PowerPoint, Canva, or any other presentation software/application.
LENGTH OF PRESENTATION
Each presenter will be allowed eight (8) minutes of presentation, exclusive of setting up of laptop and opening of the presentation file. Should technical glitches prevent a presenter/s from presenting during his/her/their timeslot, the next presenter will be called instead.
If a paper has multiple presenters, only one laptop should be used to achieve efficiency in time management.
PRESENTATION PROPER
Each parallel session has an assigned moderator who will facilitate the flow of the session proceedings. Presenters are expected to take the cue from the moderator at all times.
Before starting with the presentation, presenters must acknowledge the paper’s authors and co-authors, including those who are not at the conference.
Presentations must be brief. Key points/highlights of the paper/study should be emphasized.
After all presentations are done, the Open Forum will proceed. Presenters are expected to provide brief and direct answers to questions raised.
DOCUMENTATION OF PRESENTATION
The organizers will photo-document the parallel sessions. Presenters may take photographs or audio-video recordings during the sessions. Uploading these materials to any of the presenter’s social media platforms or to their respective affiliation’s official websites is of their own volition. They must ensure that data privacy protocols are observed prior to uploading.
SIGNATURES
After completing the presentation, the presenters must sign the confirmation form with the session moderator. The form will become the Secretariat’s basis for the issuance of the e-certificates.
CERTIFICATES OF PRESENTATION AND PARTICIPATION
Certificates of Presentation and Participation will be emailed to the presenters after the conference.
