Get Your Students Hired
It seems to me that the use of generalization can be an aid - perhaps even a bridge for the semantic learners - to getting students to glean more information from episodic experiences in their lives. If you can call up your own experiences, and get the students to call up theirs (perhaps through writing activities), it might help bridge the gap in some learning situations.

Generalization can serve as abridge to episodic memory. It allos a practical linkage to graps ,relate and retain neww knowledge. It can be a symbolic aid or or remained in retaining the unfamiliar and integrating into one's knowledge base
Willis,
This sharing gives them examples of what they are going to face one they enter the field. Information like this helps them to make a connection between content and application.

I find that many of my younger students have often limited life experience and sometimes O in the way of work experience. I have to share my 35+ years of experience to spur responses from them.
