RPIC 2024 PRESENTATION FORMATS

1. Paper presentations
   Paper sessions are presented by one or more authors. Each paper presentation has a maximum duration of 30 minutes, inclusive of Q&A.
2. Symposiums
   Symposiums are integrated presentations by a team on a specific issue, study or practice. Each symposium should focus on a well-structured theme or a set of inter-related research questions. Within each symposium, each paper presentation should provide data or arguments that address those questions. Each symposium has a maximum duration of 1 hour 30 minutes, inclusive of Q&A.
3. Workshops
   Workshops provide an opportunity for extensive discussions and active engagement between presenter(s) and participants on a specific topic, subject or project. They typically have a practical, hands-on orientation, making them valuable for sharing proven classroom practices and pedagogy in detail. Each workshop has a maximum duration of 1 hour 30 minutes.
4. Posters
   Poster sessions provide an opportunity for participants to discuss their research with fellow scholars in an interactive setting. Poster presentations should provide a clear idea of the topic being addressed, the research questions, methods of data collection and data analysis, and the significance of the study. A poster should rely heavily on graphics to illustrate research findings.
