Tips for Blogging Your Symposium Experience

blogging

Here are some guidelines you can use when blogging about the symposium.

  • If you get the chance, read the session abstract before the session to familiarize yourself with the material.

  • Capture what jumps out at you as the key issue or theme that arises during the session. Don’t worry about capturing the minutia instead focus on what strikes you about the presentation.
  • Use links in your post to point the readers to key information referenced during the session.
  • Don’t worry about perfection. You are doing this live and on the fly. Mistakes and typos will occur and that is okay. You can always go back and fix the typos later.
