Program WELCOME students! The ISEA student
program at the annual meetings is designed to create and enhance learning
and networking opportunities for and among you, as well as between you and
the broader ISEA membership and conference attendees. For the 2007 Annual
Meeting in Raleigh-Durham, several student-focused activities have been
planned as described below: Student
Poster Competition The Student Poster Competition
has been scheduled during the Opening Reception on Sunday, October 14,
from 7:30-9:00 p.m.
This program provides a unique opportunity for students to practice and
perfect their skills by presenting their research to a panel of judges
along with peers and other attendees. Five posters will be selected to
receive awards as described below. A list of students participating in
this competition can be found in the conference program. Reminders for Students

during the regular conference session, you must be prepared to make and
present a poster during the competition.
2)
Each participating student will be required to mount his/her
poster(s) at 4:30 p.m. on October 14 in the pre-assigned area for review. The posters will be grouped by research topics to enhance
student communication and networking during poster preparation and
presentation. 3)
Students need to stand near their poster during the competition.
When approached by the judges, they will be asked to summarize their
research in a 2-minute brief oral presentation and to be available to
respond to questions. Eligibility Requirements: All
students who are currently enrolled in an undergraduate or graduate
program (masters or doctoral) at a University or College and who are
