Verbal/Written Communications (I hope I'm posting this comment in the correct place):

I learned ways to teach about verbal and written communication. As a business owner and professional myself, I understand the importance of communicating effectively. 

In my CTE Photography class we create websites. I have students write an "About Me" page. I will take the part about "thinking about your audience" and use it as a prompt when they are writing for this page. For business owners (students), knowing who you are targeting will help guide your writing. If you're desire is to draw in senior portrait clients, the way you write will be different than if you are wanting to work weddings (or any other photography genre).

Something I think about often, is students' ability to communicate THEMSELVES in the future. I'm concerned about students and humans in general becoming too reliant on using AI to think and communicate for them. AI can be a helpful tool, but I worry that our own communication skills will wane (in addition to the other environmental and job availability concerns that AI poses).
