This resource was reviewed by Virginia faculty for the VCCS.ENG.246 course. It was considered strong in the quality of explanation of the subject matter, limited in comprehensiveness, and strong in cultural relevance for this course.

"Multimedia information about Chaucer and a variety of linked out texts of Chaucer. So, great comprehensiveness for Chaucer, but limited for a survey course of British Literature. An excellent source to be included with others. While this object is focused on Chaucer, it does include a reworking of his material by a poet who is Black, British, and a woman. This is a nice approach to reading Chaucer against the grain and in a way that encourages dialogue and increased cultural competency"--Virginia faculty member.
