Abstract

Ignatian pedagogy, inspired by the Spiritual Exercises of Saint Ignatius of Loyola, adapts to contemporary educational challenges. E-learning is the ideal setting for educational technology, world wide web and social networks. Based on educational technology frameworks and principles, this essay proposes corollaries for the five elements of the Ignatian pedagogy, such as context, experience, reflection, action and evaluation; and the five principles for effective teaching, such as problem-centered, activation, demonstration, application, and integration. These corollaries, by the way of deduction, propose bridges and connections for the instructional design of Ignatian pedagogy evidenced in the integration of ICT in virtual learning environments.
