Presentations are a common way of communicating information. You may be required to create a presentation for an assignment, or you might need to give a presentation at a job interview, conference, or event.
An academic or research poster is an "illustrated abstract" or a brief dissemination of your research. You may be asked to create a poster for a course assignment, for a conference, or for a another purpose.
Read your assignment or submission requirements carefully for considerations such as specific poster size.

Posters can be designed using a variety of software and apps. The most common software used include Microsoft PowerPoint and Microsoft Publisher, both of which are available through RDP. Note that word processing software like Microsoft Word is not suitable for creating posters.
