How to Build Your Trifold Presentation
A Trifold presentation of your project is a visual way to sum up your project essays and report. The main idea is for judges to be able to gather the most pertinent information about your project at a glance!
Keep in mind, trifold judges have not read essays or reports, and they only have 5 minutes to evaluate your project. So, make sure your summaries are clear, CONCISE, and that your layout follows the format.
Your trifold will be judged based on content and visual appeal and will account for 1/3 of your final project score.
