Reviews of professor Randall Lane

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
His lectures go pretty fast. Online quizzes and assignments every week which get easy but some take time, basically learn the material by reading the book online, but SI and tutoring sessions are available to help you out. Tests are based mostly on the reading.

Online assignments take 4+ hours. Ridiculously difficult discussion posts. Takes 3+ weeks to put in any current grades. No elaboration on anything in the PowerPoint and no expansion of material.  Professor doesn't understand the class material himself. The majority of the material in the exams is not within the lecture videos or on the PowerPoint.

Straight A student. One of the worst classes I have taken. Posts grades long after submission. Does not respond to emails in a timely manner. I spent hours studying for his tests, but aside from some of the math, there is little guidance. Anything in the textbook could be on the test, even if it wasn't on the homework, quizzes, or lecture videos.

I am trying to think of his good qualities as a professor. He has made it difficult for me to do so. Real averages for his tests are in the 50-60% range, curves AVG to about 70%. 3+ hours of HW/week. He put grades in D2L a month+ after due, doesn't accept late homework. Tiring, non-interactive lectures I'm passing but I would find another professor

The most boring and un-interactice teacher you will take. Has the weirdest deadlines and gives out tons of hw. Does the absolute most in order to get full points on discussion points. Literally the worst professor I have taken at EIU. DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS. Learned absolutely nothing.
