| Summary: | To serve the various interests and needs of those in the West Valley Community College District, Mission College is planned as a responsive, humane, and open organization offering diverse programs and excellent services. The learning program will be based on postulates that involve: (1) student-faculty interaction; (2) teaching and community services as mutually compatible endeavors for faculty and students; (3) student control over his/her program; (4) the use of learning objectives; (5) a variety of learning strategies; (6) the change of courses and programs as needs and interests change; and (7) instruction in problem-solving. The college will use the prescriptive learning approach to create individualized programs. The faculty will be considered learning facilitators, whose role will be expanded to involve the total educational program. These plans form guidelines for creating the delivery system, the basis of which will be the organization--a group of institutes specializing in various subject matter areas, a Center for Common Studies, and the Information and Support System. The first four institutes will be Environmental and Applied Sciences, Human Affairs, Cultural Studies, and Public and Commercial Services. (KM) |
