    I realized the importance of making students reflect on what they learned and use it so that they can learn more.

    • You have summarized the 2 most important points about the IPP: Understanding by reflection and applying what they have learned through action/tests.

  2. Arnold Tiempo Says:

    I learned that the main point of this lecture is touching the affective side of the students. Making the students understand the importance of learning. Moreover, I learned that effective teaching is not teacher-centered but student-centered.

    • Yes, we tend to focus on the intellectual side only, which is necessary, but not enough. You are so right in saying that effective teaching is student-centered: It is the student who should work harder than the teacher so he or she will learn more.

    When our students graduate our schools, we hope they can discern themselves. But especially in junior high school, they can’t discern themselves yet. When and how are students able to discern, and what can we do about it?

  4. Jun Fukumoto Says:

    Fr.Go said “students are asked to do now”
    I agree….
    but these chance is very few…
    test is often asked only knowledge…..

    This is the first time iI listen to IPP. It is very helpful for me as a teacher in Vietnam, where there is no school run by any religion. But I think I can use IPP in my teaching as well.

  6. hajime masui Says:

    Students are of many type and are on different stage. How can I assist them to practice IPP personally? So It is important to know their context.

  7. Sumio Takahashi Says:

    I sympathize that encourage our students to become active learners is really important.

    I want to know examples;
    How do we make the tests which lead student to act?

    • Tests can be products that students are asked to create or performances that they are asked to deliver. The important thing is that these products or performances are real-life.

  8. Do Manh Cuong Says:

    I think, learning model are applying in IPP base on the experiential learning model. That is good, because as J. Piaget (I am not sure) wrote “learning is a process whereby knowledge is create through a transformation by experience”.
    It is excellent if all teachers in IPP can understand thoroughly and apply this learning model

    Comment:
    I think, in this case, we have to re-construct all school curriculum based on IPP. We often ask, what is a Jesuit high school. The answer is that the school adopting IPP.

  10. Takayama Noboru Says:

    My interest is religious formation for students. How can I teach the value of ”Be men for others” by IPP method?

  11. Kohei Matsumura Says:

    Thank you for your interesting lecture. and I have a one question. What is a spirituality (that wrriting in spiritual excercise)?
    I feel it is not clear. I think to listen to the lecture ,just “How to study”. So I think to need more clearly a spiritual perspective. And I am expecting to develop the IPP, and we collaborate with.

    • We are willing to help and collaborate with you.

      Spirituality, for those who believe in God, is a way to find God and meaning in their life. IPP is a way to study and learn based on the spirituality of St. Ignatius of Loyola.

  12. Yoshiki Morimoto Says:

    The students always say “Why do we study math ? Is this useful ?”

    I teach math. I do the lecture for 25 minutes, so I make the students practice for 25 minutes. When they have questions , they call me .

    The teachers in our school are too busy to prepare for the school enough, so I often lose reflection.

    • If you use half the time for students to be active in their exercises, that’s already very good. It’s true teachers are always busy, but reflection is very important because your students will find out why Math is useful.

  13. I felt the importance of doing IPP again in may class and in my whole school. Doing IPP is keeping identity as a jesuit high school. From now on we have to plan to develop IPP in every field in our school.Teachers should not do everything , but the students should do more themselves on learning.

  14. Kunihiko Ono Says:

    I learned importance about “reflection”.

    Many non christian teacher are teaching in Japan.
    What Is the “reflection” religious for them?
    When non christian teacher teach, can we call the teaching “IPP” ?
    How can they learn “reflection”?

    • Reflection does not have to be related to religion. It is just encouraging students to organize and connect what they have learned by asking them the 3 questions: What did you learn? How did you learn? Why did you learn it?

  15. Yusuke Abe Says:

    I’m really inspired the guidance and think it important to understand the vision and the method.Also I wanted to know the way how to make my student understood religious life in daily.

    • Thank you. Yes, religious life is something very important. I hope teachers of literature, ethics, and civics/history can also mention the value of religious life.

  16. Ayami Shimizu Says:

    I’ve not been familiar with I.P.P, actually I heard of (learned) it here for the first time.
    It sounds very useful, effective approach. So I’ll try to make it a rule to ask my students “WHAT”, “HOW” and “WHY” in class, because I tend to explain too much and speak more than them.
    How do Xavier teachers ask students in exams?
    Don’t they do any multiple-choice test?

    • This is excellent–your decision to ask them the WHAT, HOW, and WHY questions! Good luck!

      We in Xavier still use multiple choice tests, but we also try to make students DO more than just remember by giving them real-life cases so they can apply what they have learned.

  17. Sumio Takahashi Says:

    I empathize that encouraging our students to become active learners is really important.

    Q;
    How to make the tests which lead student to act.

    • ACTION here means using and applying what students have learned. So the test can include real-world cases and students are asked what they would do by using what they have learned. This way the teacher finds out if the students have learned and if they can use what they have learned in the real world.

  18. Iwai Azusa Says:

    What I learned about the “IPP” at a Work shop by Fr. Artuer Leger, but, Ihave never heard about the “IPP” in my school in Japan, so, I could’nt understand the “IPP” deeply.

    But, I noticed that 5 point “contxt ,experience, refrection, action, evalution ” was very important to teach. And you tought the example “if you teach math, you have to teach why this subject is important” , “after the examinaon student do the prezentation what to learn” , ” student have to do what to learn now.”etc… . I would like to do in my school in Japan. Thank you very much.
