CHAPTER OVERVIEW nxnx
Chapter One lays the foundation for the textbook. Make sure you look on the
nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx
publisher‘s web site for information about how business law intersects with the six
nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx
functional areas of business. The authors encourage students to ―connect to the
nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx
core,‖ and remember the ways in which law intersects with other areas of study,
nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx
including corporate management, production and transportation, marketing, research and
nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx
development, accounting and finance, and human resource management.

This manual supports the ―connecting to the core‖ theme by giving ideas for
nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx
assignments that encourage students to integrate their business law knowledge with
nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx
knowledge they are acquiring from their other business classes. The manual also
nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx
encourages professors to improve their teaching skills. Finally, the manual suggests
nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx nxnx
teaching ideas for both beginning and experienced teachers.
