Dry-run reflection:
I think I have a lot of good bulleted points to expand upon for each section of the PLT, so I don’t think time will be an issue for me. I wasn’t planning on doing a slideshow at first, and I wasn’t feeling pressured because all of my group mates are doing one, but looking over the bullet points in my outline, as long as I keep them broad on the slideshow and expand upon them nicely, I think it will work well.
