During Module 4, your SLP assignment is to develop a strategy and PowerPoint Presentation (PPT) to prepare for your eventual proposal defense of your DSP.
Specifically, you are to prepare a 15-20 PPT slide presentation that outlines your proposed Chapters 1-3 of your DSP. For each section of the slide deck, essential information contained within each chapter should be within narrative form and provide all of the relevant information and data to support your DSP proposal.
(Make sure to use the DSP Presentation Template provided by your instructor in the Course News section.)
