How long is your presentation
I don't have a set time. It will depend on how the students react to it, how many questions they ask and if they appear interested or lost.
what do you want to accomplish
I want to use the map/territory analogy to frame irrationality and show the benefits of being rational. At my college "sensitivity" is considered a much more important virtue than "honesty" and part of what I want to do here is fight against this.

If that's your goal how about talking about the clash between the two values more directly? Explain situations where students falsely value sensitivity over honesty.
Here is a presentation on the map and territory I'm planning on giving to my game theory class.
It's based on Liron's You Are A Brain post.
Any suggestions for improvements?
