Each presentation has a time limit of 15 minutes, and presenters are expected to deliver the basic ideas of the extended abstract. Following a group of papers, each session will have a round of questions up to 30 minutes.

Presentation video: The presentations will be made this year with pre-recorded videos by the authors. After the presentation time there will be half an hour for LIVE debate with the authors.

Video must be recorded on any platform (Google Meet, Streamyard, Zoom, among others) and stored in a sharing application. Keep an eye on the resolution so your presentation is readable while the file size doesn't get huge.

The LINK (only the link!) from Google Drive, Dropbox or similar sharing websites must be informed by the author on the official website of Cyberjornadas, directly in the reserved area of the participating author. Due to good experience, we recommend using Google Drive. Foreign authors are allowed to send the link direct by e-mail to avoid difficulties. The deadline to inform the video link is Sunday, September 4th.

Video presentation time limit: 15 minutes.

Registration fee payment: Please, contact us by email to learn how to make the payment.
