Spring 2023 - I had an extremely unpleasant experience with this professor, and I must admit that I found him to be the worst person I've ever encountered. I reached out to him during his office hours on multiple occasions, hoping for guidance and support, but each time I left feeling extremely disappointed. He seemed completely careless and showed no interest or concern for anything I had to say. It was abundantly clear to me that he had no regard for fairness or flexibility. The course started off with a sense of promise and clarity, but as time went on, I realized that the tests were incredibly difficult, almost impossible to pass. I can honestly say that I'd rather drop out of UCLA than subject myself to another one of his classes.

Summer 2017 - This class is one of the best I have ever taken at UCLA. Lana genuinely cares about her students and loves teaching, it shows through the way the material is presented. the class is set up with continuous work to make sure you are keeping up. For the summer course, there were 4 writing assignments where the best 3 were taken for your grade. there were 5 online labs which were fun and engaging. then the midterm and final were both take home. This course is engaging and fun.
