contents An Innovative Approach to Orientation at One Comprehensive Community College. Opitz, Armand M. Career Planning Community Colleges Course Content Course Descriptions Course Organization Group Dynamics Instructional Innovation Interpersonal Competence Orientation Materials Peer Teaching Performance Contracts School Orientation Self Concept Several innovative approaches to the orientation course that have been tested in a community college are described. These approaches emphasize the areas of orientation of special importance in the community college: adjustment to the freedoms and responsibilities of being a college student, development of communication skills and relationships with others, how to study, use of the college library, mechanics of survival in college (registration, seeking help, etc.), career exploration, and achievement/motivation to establish individual identity and goal orientation. The following courses are described: Psychology of Learning, General 100 (involving grade contracts), a packaged approach to orientation (for evening students for whom an extra class would be an inconvenience), peer leaders as part of the orientation class, humanistic education (focusing on effective communication and group relations). An orientation "core" is discussed as a possibility for the future. A bibliography of additional resources is also provided. (KM)
