Laura is one of the most unorganized professors I've ever had as a student at UWM. We have assignments from October that are still not graded. Her assignments and quizzes all have typos on them, her instructions for everything are confusing and full of nonsensical words. Good luck if you have to take this class with her.

Laura's class is extremely unorganized. She introduced a software that we were required to use a week before the end of the semester. On top of that, the assignments are tedious busy work that do not translate into additional learning. She tends to shut down questions when asked, so don't bother. She takes a difficult concept and makes it harder.

Instructor was inaccessible all semester, checked in once a week in a 6 week course, which led to a lot of assignments with no submit links, or being posted the day before they were due. Assignments are convoluted busy work, that she grades harshly for something she isn't available for questions about. Students had to answer each others ? instead.

Material seems unorganized for a class that is about organizing. Lots of reading and reading reactions as homework. Sometimes the assignments would not be posted until a day before they are due. The lecture slides make sense unlike the reading. Gives many chances to do extra credit.
