These sound like great ideas so far John. I think the most important thing with your particular presentation is that we see, hear, witness, and engage in the art of SLAM itself. This could be done in a number of ways, as you suggest. I'm looking forward to reading more of a synopsis on your text and learning what you will teach regarding the art of slam. Good luck as you continue to plan.
