Peter Strahlendorf

Extremely overrated. Copies and pastes legislation verbatim to his "slides". No longer has any passion for teaching and makes you feel like explaining concepts is none of his business.

Have gotten great marks in all his courses(3 OHS courses 1 ENH course). He makes it very easy. He cant help that the material is boring.... Just on midterm and one final. PROTECT THIS MAN AT ALL COSTS

Only negative is that he refused to do the course on D2L everything was administered through email which made it a little unorganized, other than that he just posts prerecorded lectures (don't waste time watching) he just reads through the lecture slides which have all the information you need for the assignments. Ctrl + f slides for assignments

Super lecture heavy. Slideshows 220 slides and separate voiceovers were 2-3 hours at times. Around 12 units and seemed okay, but the tests were so hard and the class average is LOW (covered 3 units on average, get 0-30%). Fill-in blanks assignments easy. Bad response time for emails. Teach yourself and show up for slotted tests. Don't take :(

His lectures were easy to listen to and the assignments that went with the lectures made learning and remembering the material easier.

Very mundane personality and does not have the energy to answer specific questions. This is probably due to his upcoming retirement, there's just no more vitality or passion remaining for what he does. Tests were almost impossible to study for and pass. The assignments were free marks however. Assuming you don't cheat, read 2 hours a day to pass.

Did not like this prof at all. There was so much work to be done. The fill-in the bank assignments was so annoying and confusing at times. According to him, all you need for the tests are your completed fill-in-the-blank assignments which is NOT true. Did so badly on the tests cause of his advice. Also took the whole sem to get most of your marks.

He is.. an interesting prof. Teaching method was a little weird, made us submit assignments and quizzes over email. Powerpoints were just a bunch of laws and regulations but it's what his assignments and quizzes were based on. Seems like he doesn't care about his students, but when you talk to him one on one he is very kind and caring.

Ive had this prof every year for 4 years and I would definitely have him again. Although his teaching style is different and he doesn't use D2L, he is very knowledgable and provides a great learning experience. His tests are somewhat challenging, however he is a fair marker in assignments. His jokes during his lectures also really corky and funny.

first of all we're in the middle of a pandemic and there is no d2l for this course. just sporadic emails containing powerpoints and assignments. Four assignments that are 20+ pages long which consists of going thru said powerpoints. doesn't teach us how to do major assignments, so unorganized. google is your best friend with him, don't do it.
