I teach ENGL 210 for dual high school and college credit.
The materials provided on this site are useful in studying Geoffrey Chaucers
The Canterbury Tales. This site provides a plethora of materials concerning
Chaucer, Middle English, The Canterbury Tales, and the time period. The site
offers a wealth of resources; it becomes a one-stop site. Students are exposed
to a variety of aspects Chaucer. As many schools are trying to meet the demands
of budget cuts, this site provides access to The Canterbury Tales online.
Technical Remarks:
reading materials on a computer as opposed to a text book.
I did experience some technical difficulties. Under Other On-line Chaucer
Sites, the Alan Baragonas Chaucer Page was not available. The New Chaucer
Society Home Page would not allow me to return back from there. I do realize
that it is impossible to maintain links to other sites.
