* what is the difference between In-person presentation and online presentation in a conference?
In-person and online presentations at a conference differ in several key ways:
- Location: In-person presentations take place at a physical conference venue, while online presentations are held over the internet using platforms like Zoom.
- Accessibility: Online presentations can be accessed from anywhere with an internet connection, making them more accessible to a wider audience. In-person presentations are limited to the conference venue and attendees who are physically present.
- Technology: Online presentations often require the use of technology, such as laptops, cameras, and microphone. In-person presentations may also require technology, such as a projector and sound system, but these are typically provided by the conference venue.
- Cost: Attending an in-person conference can be more expensive due to the cost of travel, accommodation, and registration fees. Online conferences may be more affordable or even free, as attendees do not have to bear the cost of travel and accommodation.
Both in-person and online presentations have their own unique advantages and disadvantages, and the best format depends on the goals of the conference, the preferences of the attendees, and the budget and resources available.

Once you have registered, you will be eligible to receive the final acceptance letter. Typically, due to workload, the final acceptance letter will be released the day after the conference.
* Is the final acceptance letter issued after the final paper is submitted?
It is not necessary for authors to submit their full papers to participate and present at the conference. Therefore, the final acceptance letter can be released based on your abstract, as per our national and international rules.
* Don’t you think we need to have our full paper accepted before registration?
It's common for numerous international conferences to require registration fees before receiving the full paper. This policy is in place because presenting abstracts is often sufficient for academic promotion, and it's also in line with the guidelines of many national ministries of education.
* I wanted to ask you about the author and co-author payment limitations. If I have paid for a paper presentation as a co-author, can I present another paper as an author? And vice versa?
It is possible for you to present both articles as long as your name appears in both of them and you have already completed the registration process. please keep in mind that based on our policy at least one author per article should participate to present on behalf of the other co-authors.
* I also wanted to ask if it is possible to swap the first and second authors in an abstract I have submitted. Can I also add another author for the final paper submission?
Please feel free to update your abstract and send the revised file back to me along with the manuscript number. I will make the necessary changes by replacing the old version of your abstract.
* As a co-author, would I have the e-certificate even if it is only the first author who makes the presentation and pays the online presentation fees?
Yes, all the names of authors who participate in the conference online will be included in the certificate of participation.
* As for the in-person presentations, how will the presentations take place for authors registered in the gallery?
The conference organizers will schedule presentations in designated time slots, usually based on the thematic grouping of the papers. The schedule will be shared with the authors well in advance, allowing them to prepare and plan accordingly. Powerpoint Presentations typically last for a predetermined amount of time, 10 minutes, followed by a Q&A session. Authors are expected to give a concise overview of their work, including the research question, methodology, results, and implications. It is essential to adhere to the time limit to ensure a smooth conference schedule.
* for Online or in-person presentation what kind of content should be provided in my online poverpoint presentation of my full paper?
It is important to ensure that your presentation is clear, concise, and engaging. Use visuals to support your points and avoid using too much text on each slide. Practice your presentation ahead of time to ensure that you can deliver it confidently and effectively. For PowerPoint presentation of your full paper at this conference, you should consider including the following content:
- Title slide: This slide should include the title of your presentation, your name, your affiliation, and the conference name and date.
- Introduction: Use this slide to introduce the topic of your presentation and explain why it is important.
- Literature review: Provide a brief overview of the existing literature on your topic and explain how your paper contributes to the field.
- Research methodology: Describe the research methodology used in your study, including the data collection methods and analysis techniques.

* Will the video on youtube be for public view? Because I wish not to have the video circulating on the web.
Please be aware that in youtube there is an option to make your video private . Make your presentation private so that only the ones you share the link with will be able to view it. After the conference, you can remove the video link from your YouTube channel so that it will not circulate on the web.
* I was wondering if I agree to accept my paper to be reviewed and published in the journal of X and withdraw it from publishing in the conference proceedings book, will there be any chance my paper be rejected after their 'reviewing process'?
if you agree to accept your paper to be reviewed and published in our journal and subsequently withdraw it from publishing in the conference proceedings book, the chances of your paper being rejected after our reviewing process in the journal are very low. Our reviewing process is designed to ensure quality and relevance, and once your paper has been accepted, it is highly likely to be published in our journal. However, in the unlikely event that your paper does not meet the specific criteria or guidelines during our reviewing process, and if we are unable to proceed with its publication in our journal, we will make sure that your article is included in the conference full book proceedings as originally planned.
