06 SELECTIVITY OF JECJEF UNIVERSITY JECJEF University standards correlate with Research I accreditation expectations.

6.1 Knowledge: the selection of coursework and courses Knowledge does not simply happen. Real people create it, individually or in groups, affected by the social context in which they live which surrounds us all; that context may provide a background, influence or become itself the subject of study. (p. 132, Theory of Knowledge, New York: Oxford, 2007)

6.2 Reasoning: The purpose of coursework and course Abstract thinking, planning, and imagination are cognitive capacities. (p. 64) Reasoning can scarcely be separated from the thinking We consider abstract ideas and symbols, and manipulate them into poems, mathematical formulae, musical scores,., political speeches. We make decisions, we set goals, and we organize, research, and plan; We solve problems.We decide that information which we had learned in the past is pertinent to our present.We select, compile,, compare, contrast, classify, name, count, estimate, and calculate.We reason, we induce, deduce, infer, generalize, specify, recognize similarities, and draw analogies.Weargue endlessly about what is true, good, right, beautiful, and just and what is not.(p. 64)

6.3 The successful completion of coursework and courses, the next step, service-works, compensated-uncompensated Through the encouragement of usefulness of coursework, courses-knowledge, reasoning, i.e. existence, JECJEF University encourages service and works, anchored in grouped or trained religious perspective, i.e. The Holy Bible, James 1:1 2:26 encouraging faith and works

6.4 The work of successful graduates JECJEF University promotes sound individuality and self-employment with religious emphasis, based on the scriptures, Matthew 6 9-15, 2 Peter 2 9, Philippians 4 13 of The Holy Bible
