This winter break, 20 students traveled to Costa Rica as part of a tropical ecology course. Each student chose a topic to explore related to tropical ecology and presented a short talk on the topic to the group during the trip. Students were then asked to apply the 3-30-3 Rule to create an informational poster on that topic. This rule states that you have only three seconds to grab the attention of the audience through your poster. Once the audience decides to initially engage, you then have 30 seconds to keep them engaged as they quickly scan the poster and its overall message. Finally, the presenter must be able to create a clear, concise message that gives the take-home information in 3 minutes. The posters will be presented together to provide students with the opportunity to share their adventure with the symposium attendees. Topics in the poster session include neotropical migratory birds, lizards, bats, tapirs, monkeys, ecotourism, pollinators, weird insect adaptations, sloths, butterflies, volcano geology, and more.
