Ideafest is truly a multidisciplinary event, where history, psychology, engineering, biology, English, art, agriculture majors (and all other majors) present their research. It has helped showcase to all Dordt students and the surrounding community the exciting research being conducted by their fellow students.
Since 2004, Ideafest has taken over the Campus Center for an afternoon. There are three forums for student presentations chaired by a faculty member--with presentations held to a very brief 10 minutes with 5 minutes for questions. There is also an area for poster presentations and for science experiments.
Have you written a paper, conducted some research, or analyzed and written a poem in one of your classes? Then share it with our community! Did some great research in English 100 paper? Present it! Presentations will be 8-10 minutes long with about five minutes for questions from the audience. Or, students in some disciplines, like psychology or many of the sciences, often make poster presentations where you stand in front of your project and answer questions rather than make a formal presentation.
