Reviews of professor Laura Slane

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Professor Slane is really good in Statics. She has clear lectures and makes the material understandable. She really cares about the student and is always available to help. It is an ME course so it will be tough but very do-able to get a good grade.

I am really hate her, though many of my peer think she teach well. As a 2-credits course, the course load is extremely high, especially when doing projects. Her projects are like asking you to utilize everything she mentioned in the class, even sometimes beyond, and ask you with specific method that she assigned. VERY ANNOYING and MAKES ME MAD...

Her grading criteria is shit. You will be deducted point due to drawn figure has flaw in a coding course. Her requirements on format is driving me mad as well. It is super crazy!!!

I've only taken Professor Slane once, but as I was taking her class I was pretty blah about the material and did well without too much fervor. However, when I looked back at all of the things we had learned, I noticed how easily she broke down the subjects into bite-sized pieces that covered an insane amount of material. It was all easy to learn.

Professor Slane is a very kind professor. If you took ME104, the first half of this class is just a repeat of force diagrams. Lectures aren't recorded so make sure to show up. It's a very up close and personal class, and she remembers names and faces.

The lectures are engaging and informative, but the workload for a 2-credit course feels excessive. It surpasses the workload of my 4-credit differential equations course. Deducts a lot of points for minor errors. It's important to be cautious about not copying other people's code, as the academic honesty board can be right around the corner.

She is so lovely and willing to answer all your questions. If you focus on her lectures, finish homework carefully, and prepare her tests and quizzes, you will easily succeed in this course. Five Stars!

Lots of MATLAB coding homework but this is a TWO-credit course. My four-credit Mechanical Engineering courses cost me less time than this TWO-credit course. She has THREE long, hard, complicated coding projects during the semester which will take you almost two weeks to complete. Please reduce the workload or increase to four credit course.

Lots students like this professor, but I am in the minority of disliking her teaching style. While she has office hours, a majority of the material is not taught in lectures. Also, there will be parts on assignments with little explanation from lecture notes. Slane is definitely not the worst professor but could better explain the assignments.
