Η αξιολόγηση βασίζεται σε ένα σύντομο κριτικό δοκίμιο με περιορισμένη βιβλιογραφία (2500 λέξεις περίπου, 30% του τελικού βαθμού) και σε μια τελική γραπτή εξέταση που συνδυάζει ερωτήσεις ανάπτυξης δοκιμίου σε ύλη που έχει διδαχθεί καθώς και σε ύλη που δεν έχει διδαχθεί (70% του τελικού βαθμού). Στην αξιολόγηση των γραπτών δοκιμίων λαμβάνονται υπόψη η γνώση του αντικειμένου και η οικιότητα με τα λογοτεχνικά και κριτικά κείμενα της ύλης, καθώς και η οργάνωση, η επιχειρηματολογία, το επίπεδο έκφρασης στην αγγλική γλώσσα και η ικανότητα ανάλυσης και σύνθεσης σε σχέση με την ερμηνεία του κινήματος του Αγγλικού Ρομαντισμού και της πολιτικής/κοινωνικής του διάστασης. Στα πλαίσια του μαθήματος, δίνεται ακόμη η δυνατότητα για προφορικές παρουσιάσεις. Οι φοιτητές/φοιτήτριες μετά από συνεννόηση με τη διδάσκουσα μπορούν να μελετήσουν ένα κριτικό ή θεωρητικό κείμενο και να το παρουσιάζουν στην τάξη. Εφόσων η παρουσίαση είναι επιτυχής (λαμβάνονται υπόψη η οικιότητα με τα κείμενα της ύλης, καθώς και η επιχειρηματολογία, το επίπεδο έκφρασης στην αγγλική γλώσσα και η ικανότητα ανάλυσης και σύνθεσης) ο φοιτητής/η φοιτήτρια λαμβάνουν έναν επιπλέον βαθμό στην τελική τους βαθμολογία. Τα κριτήρια αξιολόγησης γνωστοποιούνται στους φοιτητές στην αρχή του εξαμήνου.
