Student Photos We photograph all new students individually
and in groups. We send the photographs with our safe arrival
emails to counseling agents and to families of the student.
We also make these photos, and all photos we take, available on our Picassa Photo Gallery (we obtain a release waiver from all students).
The student can share these photos with friends and family through this public website.

Tour of Santa Barbara
![Page 12: Lp catesol executive summary orientation presentation](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061304/5495d12cb4795946348b45db/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Highlights of Orientation Students are usually exhausted by the
time they arrive in Orientation, so we try to make orientation as fun and interactive as possible. It is important to use sheltered speech and to gauge students’ comprehension through non-verbal cues.
If we notice students seem tired, we get them out of their chairs to stretch, which always elicits a smile.
![Page 13: Lp catesol executive summary orientation presentation](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061304/5495d12cb4795946348b45db/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Highlights of Orientation Even though our handbook is only four pages
long, we do not try to cover everything – just the critical information we wish to impart.
Each administrator covers his or her domain: The Academic Director talks about study skills,
academic honesty, the curriculum and grading scale.
The Student Advisor talks about activities, safety and immigration rules.
The Resident Advisor and Homestay Coordinator cover their respective housing rules and expectations separately.

Highlights of Orientation We convert all long website URLs into
tinyurl.com addresses so they can remember them easily (tinyurl.com/elssb) and write them on the whiteboard.
We always introduce helpful activity calendars: Edhat.com (Santa Barbara Blog) Meetup.com (A curated and categorized list
of local events that are open to the public)
![Page 15: Lp catesol executive summary orientation presentation](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061304/5495d12cb4795946348b45db/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Highlights of Orientation We heavily emphasize safety, and make
sure everyone understands what an “emergency” is, and how to call 911. We make them repeat “911” and cover it in the quiz section.
After everything is covered, we conduct an oral quiz and give out small prizes such as candy. This gives students an opportunity to revisit content, further cementing it.

For Late-comers Not all of our students arrive for our
monthly start dates. In this case, we give the student an
abbreviated one-on-one orientation and tour that takes about 30 minutes.
![Page 18: Lp catesol executive summary orientation presentation](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061304/5495d12cb4795946348b45db/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
For Late-comers We give the student the Orientation Bag
and explain the most important academic, safety and immigration rules.
If the student has a car, we show him or her the parking lot. If he or she is on-foot, walk him to the bus station.
![Page 19: Lp catesol executive summary orientation presentation](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061304/5495d12cb4795946348b45db/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
For Late-comers If the student needs a mobile phone or
a bank account, we hand them pre-printed Google Maps accordingly.
The student later receives housing and activity orientation during weekly-designated times.

Small Group Discussion In groups of three (including one scribe),
discuss: What do you emphasize in your orientation? How do you overcome jet-lag and information
overload? What are some school- or location-specific quirks
you “orient” around? Any funny anecdotes that have altered your
orientation procedure?
