Definition: The determination of the relative position of something or someone.

Alright class, settle down, let’s take a look! You’ve got a great definition there – “The determination of the relative position of something or someone.” But what does that really mean? Think about it like this: Imagine you're setting up a brand new classroom. You need to know where everything goes, right? The desks, the whiteboard, the bookshelves… you’re figuring out their orientation – how they face and relate to each other. You’re deciding which way is “up” or “front.” “Orientation” in general means understanding where something is in relation to something else. It's about finding your bearings! Here are a few ways we see it used: A new job: A company might have an "orientation" to help you understand the role and expectations. A trip: You might get an “orientation” to the city before exploring. An object: A map shows the orientation of a mountain range, telling you which way is north. Does that make sense? Do you have any questions about finding your place – or understanding how things fit together? Don’t hesitate to ask! Let's break it down further if needed.
