Reviews of professor Lucinda Lawson

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Dr. Lawson is very knowledgeable on the information she teaches, but her skills as a teacher are not very good. You can tell she is trying her best but she falters and sometimes talks to long on subjects as most scientists do.

There is a lot of cool material covered within this course, lots of guest speakers which can be interesting. Only negative thing is if you are conservative...... don't take this class.... liberal views are absolutely shoved down your throat from the professors and the guest speakers that come and can really make you want to check out of the class.

This class isn't particularly difficult. She goes over very cool aspects of environmental studies and has a lot of professionals working in the field as guest lecturers. Group work.

This class consists of a midterm which was nice cause you were given the questions ahead of time and they were essay questions. We did a group project over superfund sites as well which wasn't too bad. Course was taught with another professor, he was cool. Dr. Lawson is super sweet and positive and caring class isn't hard if you put in effort.

This has literally been my least favorite class at UC and I plan to go into conservation biology. The class is heavily flipped classroom (spend 4 extra hours a week watching reused material and youtube videos then she grades your NOTES). Complete waste of time on all fronts, if you are at a 4000 level you should already know everything she teaches
