Comment:
Dr. Lamb is an extremely incompetent Music Education professor. Although she was very involved in the 80s and the 90s, times have changed and her ideas are out-of-touch with today's society. Almost everything is irrelevant to both teachers and students. As well, she is extremely disorganized. If you have the choice, DO NOT TAKE ANY CLASS WITH HER.

Comment:
Dr. Lamb is certainly eccentric, but has much to offer. While I agree that she can be scatterbrained, she has improved substantially over the last 4 years. Discussions in class are fun and thought provoking, and readings are helpful and applicable to future classroom teaching.

Comment:
She came to every class late, sometimes even 30 min., and these were hour long classes. She was condescending, unprepared, and boring. I was so excited for this topic, yet she managed to kill my enthusiasm. Be prepared to have your enthusiasm for further learning damaged, if not ripped from you completely.

Why is she teaching? How is she still here? Why does she waste my time and money? All questions I want answered. I never thought teachers this bad existed at the University level, how ironic that she specializes in education.

The fact that she blatantly interrupts and cuts people off when they're trying to say something in class is appauling.

Comment:
I found Dr. Lamb very helpful. She pushed my thinking further and made me a better writer. She did have her obvious slants but so did the other profs. She was refreshing against the backdrop of the old boys network.I found her to be knowledgable. People approach education as students ready to be taught--people should come to class ready to learn!

Taking her Music Education class has shown me what NOT to do as a teacher. Condescending, disorganized, unprofessional.

Comment:
Dr.Lamb is a difficult person. Not only was she biased in many ways, I never learned a thing, despite her weekly teachings and lectures. She is also very spiteful and condescending towards students who are not of the ed stream. She discourages students, and is constantly contradictive. Certainly a failure of a prof.

My interest in this subject was almost destroyed by Lamb's hideous lack of knowledge of teaching and acceptance of other points of view. I bite my tongue to prevent me from saying anything further. Hopefully she'll move on and stop corrupting young eager minds. Good luck future Queen's students!

I find it sad that the two lowest rated teachers from Queen's University are the "Education" professors. Lamb will lower your grade for not sharing her views, and is definately **** against the men in the class.

Scatterbrained and unorganized for the most part, but still had some good ideas. She has improved over the last year from what I have seen in her teaching. I do find her views in the classroom a little overpowering. I do, however appreciate her honesty.

She is the reason that tenure should be abolished! When everyone says you're terrible (check out what it says here...), it's time to be fired or do the honourable thing and quit! We wish...

Sorry to see that Roberta is still teaching. She was my Music in Ed prof 14 yrs ago. She was crazy! Her delivery was boring and she never kept her radical feminist views to herself. Totally docked those of us who didn't share her views. Baaaaaaaaaaaa!

What a joke! Please keep your harsh feminist views out of the classroom. I don't need to have everything related to homosexual women. Oh and don't be so obvious about hating all male students and flirting with the cute girls in class. Seriously BRUTAL!
