Some GE instructors gather key information about the content of the career courses and then use that information to support the GE need in order to help learn ...XYZ...in their career course. In other words, they make a practical, real world example career students can relate to. Another related tatic is to share that employers want and need individuals who can think critically, speak and communicate effectively, and interact in the work-setting where the necessticies of commerce requires individuals who can perform math, write, and relate to a variety of indivudals.
