Comment:
Laura is kind & offers to help in office but things can remain unclear. She is not open to differing opinions. This was a writing intensive course wmultiple essays, a shortlong answer MT, & a take home essay final. The textbook is dated & the material is dry. Not a true seminar course bc few discussions & no group work but wseveral speakers.

The conference for credit was a good idea. The 50 facts projects were interesting even though I usually hate group work. I will take another with her

Laura is absolutely phenomenal. She grasps your attention and makes you really think about the world around us. You can tell she has a passion for what she is teaching. She is a very fair marker; you really do get what you deserve with her. Go to all your classes (and pay attention) and read your text book and you should be fine. An amazing prof.

She's a good teacher, and manages to grab your attention and make you really think about things. I think the readings are a little too much, and the tests are hard though. It's always linking things, and thinking critically about it all. Kind of a hard marker. I'm still taking another class with her though!

This instructor was totally inspiring, full of personality and passion. Weekly quizes were great it forced one to stay on top of the readings. Excellent eye opening class. Can't wait to take another class with her.

Laura is so awesome!!!!! I changed my major from Psychology to Anthropology because of taking her classes. She really makes you think critically about what is really going on in this ignorant and sometimes depressing world. I like her as a teacher, but I like her even more as a person.

Comment:
laura is hard to describe. yes she can be biased. but she also gives alot of extra time for ppl she feels are trying but aren't doing as well. our class had 2 mid terms (no final), 1 essay, 1 group project, and 1 discussion of a book. there can be alot of work, depending on your course load. id take lisa fiaella if i was to do it again. GOOD LUCK!

Very unorganized, lectures go all over the place. If you are interested in taking this course, take it with someone alse. I really disliked this course.

Laura is a great teacher! She is interested in making sure you do well, but you have to do the work. You can tell she is very passionate about what she teaches and has lots of first hand experience. Anth didnt interest me before taking her, but now i want to take another course! Definitely Recommended!

great person, makes class fun with interesting material and good discussion. sometimes a bit unclear about what she wants or expects, but she's easy-going and easy to talk to. we need more teachers like her.
