TEMPLATE DESIGN © TITLE OF ADVOCACY PROJECT NAMES OF EACH GROUP MEMBER Mercer University Tift College of Education – Atlanta Campus THESIS STATEMENT You will add your thesis or hypothesis statement here – ie The influence, impact, and success of multicultural education depends on teacher perceptions. RESEARCH QUESTIONS LITERATURE REVIEW Synthesize & analyze the researched information - each text and at least three topic related articles. Relate the information to a minimum of the following: dimensions of multicultural education, culturally responsive teaching, and variables and components of culture. NARRATIVE QUOTATIONS Use this section to provide some historical background on the issues & to place the issue in context NUMERICAL DATA & CURRENT POLICY It is highly recommended to use the largest images you have access to for your poster. Avoid images downloaded from the web and avoid copying and pasting images instead of using the “Insert” command. To insert an image to your poster go to INSERT>PICTURE>FROM FILE (Figure 9). (Figure 9) When the only source of a needed photo or graphic is the Web, scaling has to be applied with caution. Scaling an image more than three times its original size may introduce pixelization artifacts. Refer to figure 10 as an example. A simple way to preview the printing quality of an image is to zoom in at 100% or 200%, depending on the final size of the poster. What you’ll see is likely what you’ll get at printing time. Figure 10: Original image at 100%, enlarged 200% and 400%. SIGNIFICANCE / IMPACT OF RESEARCH & SUGGESTIONS FOR FUTURE IMPLEMENTATION Include powerful quotations for your interviews or small group debriefing session TABLE ONE Provide images and APA formatted information of resources – MUST display images of at least two resources BACKGROUND – HISTORICAL CONTEXT RESOURCES AND REFERENCE LIST Contact information What should teachers, administrators, parents take away from this information?

To import charts and graphs from Excel, Word or other applications, go to EDIT>COPY, copy your chart and come back to PowerPoint. Go to EDIT>PASTE and paste the chart on the poster. You can scale your charts and tables proportionally by holding down the Shift key and dragging in or out one of the corners.
