Entry: Posters

              The main purpose of this workshop was to explain the importance of using posters in classrooms, and how they can be designed. During the workshop, it was presented the posters history, definition, use, advantages, disadvantages, tips to create them, and where to obtain them.  Regarding what we learned, there are two advantages that really caught our attention. The first one is that posters can motivate students’ learning; students feel excited and comfortable when posters are applied because they are innovative and different materials which catch students’ attention. The second one is that posters are versatile; it means that they can be adapted to any topic. On the other hand, there are two disadvantages that teachers should consider before designing them. The first one is that it takes a lot of time to create posters because they need to be attractive, legible, well-organized, and well-designed in order to be useful. The second one is that it is difficult to make corrections or adaptations when they are already printed. The most attractive part of the workshop was when we create our own poster because we applied what we learned. Finally, we realized that posters are excellent tools that teachers can take advantage of and use them during their lessons in order to create more dynamic and enjoyable classes.
