Comment:
LaFrance is a kind man that can be a little dull and has a dry sense of humor. He is obviously an introvert but expects students to participate during discussions. He grades fairly easily if you can write well and give a good faith effort. Easy class, and the hardest part was just making it to class. Be prepared to have to schedule group projects

LaFrance is a nice teacher who is passionate about his field. Although not the easiest of classes, I do believe he is fair in his grading and offers plenty of after class help.

Dr. LaFrance's class is not extremely difficult if you do the readings and write the chapter summaries. Make sure to participate in class.

Well...The first test I underestimated. He wants you to know small details, test are fairly difficult, this is not an easy class. Workload is fair, Grade breakdown is as follows: 3 tests 25% each , a 10 page paper 15% , and 10% for participation. ENJOY!!

Not a bad professor. A little unclear in what he expected sometimes. Material was not too hard. Talked a lot and could be boring. Grades fairly easily though.
