For # 1, try this website
http://www.studygs.net/
for #3, contact Drew Appleby at the Univ of Indiana--Purdue, he has a CD called "surviving, thriving, striving and arriving" that is giving to all incoming psych majors and is a guide to the major at their university. It's open for others to modify and use at their own colleges/universities.
Also, if you google Appleby's name, you'll find some webpages at Univ of Indiana that talk about the differences between high school and college and making the adjustment that might be useful for #1 on your list, as well as on the CD mentioned above.

Subject: [tips] Looking for help with developing several classes
I am looking to develop the following courses and would appreciate hearing
from those of you who have such courses (backchannel is fine), even if you
don't teach it, perhaps you can direct me to your catalogue or forward this to
the appropriate person who does teach the course for a reply. A catalogue
description, syllabus, or any other information would be helpful.
(1) Learning to learn. Anything in the lines of teaching students good learning
techniques, especially for those who might be coming into college
underprepared to undertake college level learning.
(2) Careers in psychology. Yes, I already have the syllabi from Project Syllabus
but any other insights would help. I am planning to do this a a 1-unit course.
(3) Introduction to the psych major. And I did get the one syllabus from OTRP
and also am planning this as a 1-unit course.
I will eventually summarize responses back to the list.
Thanks for your help! I know this is a huge list and am looking forward to all the
great input.
