What about accessibility?
Making presentations accessible—both slides and spoken content—is essential at large international academic conferences to ensure that all participants—regardless of language background, physical ability, or learning style—can fully engage with the content. Always use clear visuals, legible text, and well-paced speech. Accessibility fosters inclusivity, encourages broader participation, and reflects a commitment to equitable knowledge exchange in a diverse global scholarly community.
Many online resources can help you make sure your presentation is accessible. See, for example, the Accessible Presentation Guide of the Special Interest Group on Accessible Computing.
Will my paper be published?
IAMCR does not publish full length papers in conference proceedings. Certain sections and working groups may propose special issues in journals or books based on papers presented at the conference. These publications will require full cooperation and approval of the authors of the selected papers.
Can I make my presentation online?
No. All presentations are live and on-location in Singapore.
I can't go to Singapore. Can someone else make my presentation for me?
Only authors and co-authors can present papers. Friends or colleagues who are not co-authors can not.
What is the recommended length for presentations?
In general presentations should be planned to last between 10 to 12 minutes. Contact the heads of your section or working group for precise details. You can find their contact information on the initial call for papers.
