Speaker Resources
We would like to assist all speakers in making sure their presentations are a success. There are many logistical details that are best organized in advance, so your cooperation in completing the following items is sincerely appreciated.
Registration
All presenters, co-presenters, panelists, etc. are required to register.
Online registration will be available December 15, 2003.
Presentation Logistics
Each session room will be equipped with two computers (Mac and PC), a
multimedia projector, screen, white board and lavaliere or standing microphone.
Software
If you will be presenting using any software or plug-ins other than our
standard CSUMB loadset (http://it.csumb.edu/help/software/loadsets/),
and if this software must be installed on the computer in order to run
(e.g. it cannot be run from a CD or URL), then you must bring your own
laptop with the software already installed. The computers provided by
CSUMB are locked and we cannot support the instAlaation of additional
software. Please contact me and verify that one of these options will
support your presentation.
Your
Laptop
If you are bringing your own laptop, make sure that the computer you are
using has a VGA port. This is the port that allows us to hook it up to
our data projector.
The other concern, regarding the laptop, is your administrator privileges. If you need access to the web via CSUMB's campus network, we will need to input our network address. If your machine is password protected, we may not be able to access the settings. Just contact the department that handles your machine and they should be able to unlock any access passwords. If this is your personal machine, you do not need to worry about administrator privileges.
Operating
System
Please note that our computers do not run Windows XP.Please also be aware
that our PCs are running Windows 2000 and IE 6.0, and our Macs are running
OS X and IE 5.0.
We have experienced difficulties in the past when presentations contain fonts that are non-standard. Please use standard fonts only when creating your presentations.
Technical
Support
We strongly recommend a practice run of your presentation at least a day
ahead of time. This is to ensure that your presentation will run smoothly
and to test all related software and equipment. Our technical support
staff will be available to test your presentations beginning Wednesday,
March 24, 2004. Please check the conference program for technical support
times and locations.
Note: Tech support staff will also be onsite throughout the entire conference should you need assistance.
Proceedings
Proceedings: Presenters
are strongly encouraged to submit a final revised manuscript for printing
in our published proceedings. Please submit your manuscript by March 24,
2004. If you wish to revise your manuscript after the conference to reflect
feedback, we have allowed time for revisions/updates until April 24, 2004
for that purpose. We'd like to stress that this is not just an expanded
abstract or a printed version of your presentation, but rather a fully
developed manuscript. Please refer to the manuscript
guidelines.
For answers to any speaker-related questions, please contact Jacqui Cain at digitalstream@csumb.edu, 831.582.3655.
