Preparing an oral presentation. PPT and video presentation submission

Individual oral presentations will have a duration of max. 15 minutes and be grouped thematically in blocks. Each thematic block will be followed by a Q&A session. Speakers must be ready to answer questions from the audience or from the session moderator.

The PowerPoint presentations must be submitted prior to the Conference start day. The presentation files will be pre-loaded on the computer in the conference room, from where they will be shared.
Pre-recorded presentations must also be submitted ahead of the Conference. The recordings will be published on this website after the event. (The Conference will NOT be held in hybrid format. Pre-recorded presentations will not be played at the Conference. Instead, all presentations will be delivered in-person, in Split.)

The PowerPoint slideshows and pre-recorded presentations must be submitted via email (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.) by May 5, 2025. Detailed instructions can be found below.

 

PREPARING AN ORAL PRESENTATION WITH A POWERPOINT SLIDESHOW

General instructions for oral presentations:

  • Oral presentations can be delivered in Croatian or English.
  • Oral presentations cannot last less than 10 minutes nor more than 15 minutes.
  • Oral presentations must be accompanied by a PowerPoint presentation.
  • Go through 1-2 slides per minute of presentation.
  • Avoid reading from your PowerPoint slides.


General instructions for PPT-presentations:

  • The presentation text can be in English or Croatian. The text must be free of grammatical or spelling mistakes.
  • At the top of the first slide of the PPT-presentation, title, author(s) name(s), mentor(s) name(s), institution, study programme, field of specialization and e-mail address of the (corresponding) author must be written.
  • The first slide of the PPT-presentation must also include: “18th International Conference of Conservation-Restoration Studies, Split, Croatia, May 8–9, 2025“ (if the presentation text is in English) or "18. Međunarodna konferencija studija konzervacije-restauracije, Split, Hrvatska, 8. – 9. svibnja 2025." (if the text is in Croatian).
  • We recommend using the same type of font throughout the presentation. Choose a font that is easy to read and allows for better sharing and opening on different computers.
  • Use a font size that allows all people in the lecture hall to be able to read your text. Use different font sizes for titles and text. Be consistent with text formatting.
  • We recommend a consistent background colour throughout the presentation.
  • Pay attention to the colour of your text so to achieve good contrast and allow for easier reading.
  • Images must be clear and sharp.
  • The presentation must include a reference list slide. Literature references should follow the Harvard Format Citation Guide.
