Resources

We have assembled a selection of resources on Theological Education by Extension (TEE) that you will hopefully find helpful.

TEEnet has a dedicated blogging section where we post reflections by ourselves and other TEE/theological educational practitioners on issues that, in one way or another, affect the delivery and practice of TEE. We hope our blog contributes to deepening conversations and engagement among TEE practitioners regarding educational and theological educational best practices, methods, and ideas. Please also check the summary page of our published blog posts.

TEEnet publishes the TEEnet Occasional Papers series to stimulate reflection on aspects influencing theological extension education.

One key resource is TEEnet’s free e-book publications. So far, we have published Hartwig Harms’ book “Writing for TEE: A Handbook for Authors” as well as the four volumes of the “Anthology of Extension Seminary Bulletins,” which is the collection of all the Extension Seminary bulletins published by the Guatemalan seminary that developed TEE. You can find these books under TEENet Press or by clicking here: TEEnet Press. A summary of all titles of the Extension Seminary bulletins and where to find them in the Anthology can be found in our summary file below.
