Crafting an Effective Abstract

#SSWCA2021 will have 16 live Zoom presentations and approximately 75 pre-recorded video presentations! It is impossible for attendees to watch every presentation. Participants will choose topics of interest, and within that topic, they will choose what is most interesting and important to them based on the abstract.

This video offers guidance for how to craft an abstract that will effectively attract a wider audience for your presentation. Abstract must-haves: clear general topic, strong descriptors and a hook, clear and specific take-aways for the audience, and 40-100 words.

Finalized information, including presenters’ final abstract, will be submitted by Feb. 5. Presenters will be emailed details at the end of January.
