Don't have a textbook. Materials are broad, course scope is vague, slides convey little information and are very messy.

Literally the best teacher I've ever had, great content, super enthusiastic and knowledgeable of the subject matter, kind and helpful. Just pay attention and take some notes, its by far the most relevant class I've taken with a great teacher

Very disorganized, slides would be posted 10 minutes before the lecture. However, a very nice person, and seems to care for the students. But the course itself was quite all over the place.

Comment:

We had a hard time figuring out how she was able to acquire her PhD. Without hesitation, and with extreme accuracy, she is a VERY dumb professor. I'm not sure she has even been on a construction site since the 80's, when she took some pictures for the PhD she scammed. You'll see the photos in her boring tutorials.

Comment:

Never had a worse prof in my life. Many things she taught were completely wrong. The CAT textbook was only used for one problem set (worth 1%) and not worth it. Topics discussed were only given in the context of very specific cases and taught as though everything in construction operated in this way, which was normally not true. Overall a bad prof.
