ISLP Poster Competition - ISLP in association with IASE

Presented at: 17 April 2024; 16:00 UTC

Webinar duration: 90 minutes

Presenter(s): Chairs: Hugo Hernández, Adriana D'Amelio | Presenters: Patrizia Collesi, Soledad Estrella, Volker Kraft, Adenomon Monday Osagie

This webinar is designed to give three countries the opportunity to talk about their experiences in organizing the poster competition.

The Poster Competition is organized by country coordinators who - with great effort, and generally with few resources - promote and commit to the literacy of students in the different age categories.

Many with successful results, and with an increase in participation year after year. Others started with difficulties, but experience and enthusiasm made them grow.

And in all cases, with the aim of improve the participation and the posters’ quality for every next competition while their students get a higher formation in statistical literacy through the process of a statistical research needed to design their posters.

In addition to three countries’ perspective, there will be a demo in how to use the free JMP Software to create a statistical poster. JMP/SAS is a longtime supporter and sponsor of the ISLP International Poster Competition.
