Middle English Teaching Resources Online (METRO)
This online learning evironment allowed students to read and analyze different varieties of Middle English, a generic name for the dialects of England and Scotland 1100-1550). The resources were intended for students to learn at set rhythms but in their own space and time. It was used as a supplement to literature courses.
Teaching Challenge:
Normal courses did not permit sufficient time to teach undergraduates to learn how to read different varieties of Middle English properly.
