Apparently there are two M. Landas, so this one is for MELISSA LANDA (EDCI443). Easy class. Great way to acquire materials to use in your own classroom in the future. Dr. Landa is very approachable and nice, but her class is just very dull. Often found myself doing other work in the class. There are a few projects throughout the year. Straightforward and easy, but BEWARE.. I put considerable effort into these projects and then realized they were only worth 5-10 points. Approximately 6 quizzes on readings. In-class final exam, NOT during finals week. Wish the class wasn't so dull! She's a great person.

Lisa is great. The class is set up like a dialogue, so you never have to raise your hand. Quizzes are easy (just read your children's books...don't know why you wouldn't) and the final consists of a binder of all your old papers and brief essays. Projects/papers throughout the semester are easy to do because she explains every assignment clearly. Awesome motivator....one of the best teachers i've had.

Dr. Landa is so much fun and so interesting. I never wanted to miss her class and I loved coming every day. She kept class interesting with lots of talking and activities. We were always laughing and discussing and enjoying ourselves. The topic (Children's Literature) can be so much fun with a great teacher, and she truly made us appreciate and understand literature for kids. I would have never thought I could learn so much about kids' books, but I feel like an expert at choosing quality literature now. The readings are fun, the class is so much fun and very low key, and she is a joy as a teacher. I definitely recommend her!
