Finding Format

A "finding" is just a particular result of research work. An article, book, website, report, etc. can each be a "finding" it you decide that the source plays some significant role in the inquiry. When you are ready to post a finding, click on the edit tab above, copy from the line below through the four dash ("-") signs, and then paste it in for each finding you plan to post.

Finding Title

(For example, "Harms of Global Warming" or "General Book on Global Warming". Consider subtitles to give your finding some specificity)

Finding and Link (Citation in MLA format, with enduring link if possible, at least with as much publication information as you have.)

Summary/Reconstruction (Identify key ideas, reconstruct arguments and explanations, indicate the type of information you found -- research, news, background, editorial, etc. Pay particular attention to the point of view of the source or publication.)

Defining the Principes of Jesuit Education

Finding and Link: [2]

Summary: I think this web site does a great job of outlining the main ideals and motives behind Jesuit teaching. It gives a brief history of the Society of Jesus and how it was founded, as well as the most important principles of Jesuit Education. I found parts of it to be very relevant to the editorial we read this morning in class. For instance, in the introduction of the summary it states, "The Society of Jesus has always sought to imbue students with values that transcend the goals of money, fame and success. We want graduates who will be leaders concerned about society and the world in which they live." Hopefully this website will give you a better understanding of what it means to be a student at a Jesuit University, as well as provide you with beneficial information for your paper.
