Contemporary academic posters often suffer from excessive information density, poor hierarchical organization, and limited visual guidance, which hinder the rapid comprehension of key findings and reduce the effectiveness of scholarly communication. This paper introduces the #BetterPoster design framework, which integrates cognitive load theory and visual communication principles to optimize information delivery. It also proposes adaptations for portrait-format posters commonly used in Taiwanese academic settings. The #BetterPoster approach prioritizes the amplification of core messages, simplification of text, use of progressive information disclosure, and integration of QR codes to link supplementary content. These design strategies aim to reduce extraneous cognitive load, increase audience engagement, and improve information retention. In addition, the paper recommends adjustments for portrait orientations, such as resizing the core findings area, refining typography, and enhancing the information hierarchy to align with Chinese reading patterns and cultural visual norms. In conclusion, #BetterPoster should be viewed as a flexible design framework rather than a rigid template, empowering researchers to communicate their findings with greater clarity, impact, and audience resonance. |
