I like the 6 strategies:

Group Projects
Field Trips
I use cooperative assignments and projects.
I have guest speakers.
I have partnerships with business an industry partners.
We do budgeting in all our classes in our department. My Ag Mech students spend a lot of time on project planning not just construction elements but financial elements. They also practice real world skills like buying supplies, students call local business and place order themselves after recieving my approval. We also have regular industry guest speakers.
