Our Pedagogy
The Ignatian Pedagogical Paradigm (IPP) comprises three main elements: experience, reflection and action. For such learning process to be successful, it must include a pre-learning element, that of context, and a post-learning element, that of evaluation.
Learn By Doing
“In Jesuit schools, the learning experience is expected to move beyond rote knowledge to the development of the more complex learning skills of understanding, application, analysis, synthesis, and evaluation…
We use the term experience to describe any activity in which in addition to a cognitive grasp of the matter being considered, some sensation of an affective nature is registered by the student…”
