Reviews of professor Rita Lederle

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Her lectures are helpful as long as you pay attention. Notes for each class period are made available on canvas, so note taking is not as stressful. My biggest complaint is the student graders for the class. The grader will take off points for extremely minor things, or take off points when your answer is right. The projects are a lot of work.

Dr. Lederle is an overall good lecturer and loves the material. Her grading is her downfall, so if you want a higher GPA do not take her. Her tests took the entire time, hand cramp-inducing tests.  Also, she does "comprehension checks"-little quizzes she doesn't say when they are so annoying and stressful (only 5% of grade though)

Talks fast, doesn't explain things well, whole class is struggling. She probably is good at engineering but needs lessons in teaching. Students have many classes and are not professional engineers. Students are new to the field and trying to learn. 40+ hrs/ week on a project. It would've been better to assign big projects in phases with guidance.
