How to prepare your content for your poster presentation

The first thing to do before you start working of your research poster is to organize your text, images, graphs, charts, logos, etc.  This is the most important and often the most overlooked time saving-part of the process. 
Many research poster presentations are conversions of  preexisting documents such as multi-slide PowerPoint presentations or multipage MS Word documents. Because these documents were initially created for other purposes, I recommend that you create a temporary rough draft document in Microsoft Word, and use it to paste all the text you are going to eventually include on your poster presentation. But don’t spend any time formatting the text. It’s only purpose is to help you organize and edit your poster content. Later on, you are going to use this document as the source from which you’ll be copying and pasting onto your poster. 
Before copying any information on your draft document, create the following sections. These are standard sections for poster presentations and will help present your research clearly and professionally. 

Standard poster sections:

• The poster title (with author name(s) directly underneath)
• Introduction, Background,   
  (a place to quickly summarize your topic and trigger your audience’s interest)
• Research Summary (the place where the research and analysis are included)
• Conclusions or Discussion 
• Questions for Response
• References or Literature Cited (This is where you make a list of the literature you have cited regarding this project. List the names of authors, publications and publishing dates)

Insert text boxes and put useful information inside (Main text 24-40 pt)

You can make more text boxes as you need them

You can insert photos, just make sure that they are relevant to the argument you are making (not just illustrative)
Always put attribution information below the graphic
You can go down to 18 point for your references. That’s pretty small. But we can zoom in.
Experiment. Do your own thing and have fun designing your poster
Just remember,
it is always the quality of a well supported argument that matters most.
But aesthetics help.

Why do we have Crown Corporations?

Introduction

Background

Crown Corporations are known as a very important unit of government they include non-departmental organizations and regulating the private sector. These Corporations are headed by Board of directors whom get appointed by the Prime Minister. The job of a Crown Corporation is to serve the public function. They mostly function as private corporations but have more accountability to the government. They have more power with regards to personnel, finance and service provisions.

Crown Corporations have existed for over a century now. Crown Corporations are owned by the state but operate from the government. They were created in order to advance policy objectives and some opearte for business purposes. The government felt that there was a gap I the private sector therefore created Crown Corporations to fill those gaps.

Questions:

Do you think that Crown Corporations should exist at all?

Why not rely on the traditional structures of the government?

What are some examples of Crown Corporation in Canada?

Summary

Why were these Corporations created in the first place?

Crown Corporations have been used as nation building tools this include, resource development, transportation and communication. The idea was to make Canada competitive with the South. They were created to increase diversity and economic development. Major examples of Crown corporations are Canada Post and Via Rail. Canada Post is one of Canada’s largest mailing services and Via Rail is another major transportation service. Canada is divided up into regions with some being less wealthy than others and therefore less economically diversified therefore this is another reason for creating Crown Corporations.

Discussion/Conclusion

If you think about it, there are many area that’s the public sector refuses to go to therefore that is when Crown Corporations step in. Private sector is highly focused on getting profits therefore the government has to take action to consider the health and welfare of communities as well as migrations in depressed regions. Since the government is responsible for Crown Corporations the employees must deal with the government. Therefore the reason we have Crown Corporations is to do what the Private sector won’t do as well as to please the public.
