Teaching Resources from Maureen Tilley (Fordham University)

  • Christian Thought and Practice: This is the outline of subjects for a proposed three-semester course for Theology majors (and some minors), at Fordham University most of whom would take two of the three courses and some all three, depending on their track within the major.
  • Classic Christian Texts: This is an abbreviated course outline for one of a two-semester course sequence for Theology majors (and some minors), usually taken in the junior year.
  • Early Christian Writings: This is an abbreviated syllabus for a sophomore-level general education course at Fordham University. Students will have had an introduction to systematic theology (with some comparative elements). One cannot presume that students have had any history classes covering the patristic period other than those taken in high school as part of a general world civilization survey.
  • History of Christianity: This is an abbreviated course outline for a survey of the first half of a two-semester course taken by mostly by sophomore and junior religious studies majors and minors, and by a few students fulfilling a religious studies requirement at the University of Dayton, a Catholic school. Not all students took both halves of the two-semester course.
  • The Christian Tradition: This syllabus represents assignments for a one-semester history of Christianity, Jesus to last week, across the denominations. It was taught at the Florida State University in 1997.
