Include notes with each slide (within PowerPoint) to further elaborate and explain to me in detail your learning and understanding about each component of the project. This will count as the written portion of the project. This will only be submitted to me for grading. I will provide note pages (3 slides per page like my lectures) to the class and these will only include the content from each slide. Students can take notes on these during your presentation to enhance their learning.
