This research aims to understand the social representations (SR) about the creation and sharing a poster by a group of Electronic Engineering students in the final stage of their careers. The methodology followed a qualitative, descriptive-interpretative, and crosssectional approach. The principles of grounded theory (GT) were chosen as the analysis technique for the study. The results show a central representation of the production and socialization of the poster as a series of complex and strenuous tasks, whose elaboration requires a series of linguistic-cognitive, social, and multimodal skills for which the students were not adequately prepared. In addition, they construct the elaboration and socialization of a poster as an experience that produces epistemic, emotional, and critical-reflexive effects. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
