Implementing Relevant Course Content

I mainly use two strategies to bring relevant course content to the students: 1) review the course and curriculum requirements and 2) guest speakers. I am a nursing instructor and there are certain requirements that students must learn to get their degrees. As I plan my course and do my lesson plans, I review those requirements often to help me keep on track. My second strategy is great for me and the students. Hearing from different professionals help the students understand the relevancy of the content and being able to connect it to the "real" world helps solidify its importance. It's great for me because I get a little rest!
