You’ve completed your PPT. You’ve recorded the video. Now you just have to get up on stage and give your presentation. Here’s what you need to know.
Speaker and Moderator Orientation Meeting
Yosemite A-B
On the day you are scheduled to speak at CampusEnergy2024 (either Wednesday or Thursday), you are required to attend the Speaker and Moderator Orientation Meeting at 7:00am (with a delicious free breakfast) in Yosemite A-B.
In the Speaker Orientation Meeting, you will meet the moderator for your session and review session logistics with IDEA Staff members Emily Riskalla and Jason Beal. We look forward to seeing you there!
Meeting Room Logistics
Main Program Presentations will take place in one of five concurrent meeting rooms (room name for each presentation is included in the conference program and in the Event App).
The room set for all main conference presentation rooms is the same; presenter(s) at the front of the room, on stage, speaking from a mic’d podium. A 6' table will also be on stage for presentations with multiple presenters, allowing them to sit while waiting for their turn to speak.
At the podium will be an IDEA laptop with the PPT presentation you sent to us preloaded on it. The room will also include a screen and microphone in the middle of the room for audience questions.
Each session track has a moderator who will do a quick intro of the session and speakers. To save time, your full bio will not be read as people can read it in the app. An AV tech and an IDEA staff member will also be on hand to assist when needed.
IDEA divides the program into session tracks, which are blocks of time in which multiple presentations on the same topic are given over that period of time. IDEA asks that the speaker(s) for each presentation be present in the room at the beginning of their time block, ready to go on stage when it is time for their presentation to begin.
Please remember - sessions are 25 minutes long; 18-20 minutes for your presentation and 5-7 minutes for questions. The moderator will field questions from the audience.
