Reviews of professor Nimendra Mawalagedara

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
You have to show up to take notes because the tests are based on the notes taken in class and these online modules you do. As the semester goes on she might post study guides and other powerpoints to help you review for the tests and you'll do fine if you just look at those without showing up but she only did that like once so yea.

Lovely class, and great to have conversations in. While sometimes it was a bit dull, it was mostly because of the topic rather than the prof. The textbook was the biggest issue because it's extremely long but it shows exactly what you need to find. She has a lot of accommodations though. Good Luck!

She acts like a high school teacher. Her lectures are bland, and she stops in the middle of them to scold students who look like they may not be paying attention. What she says is repeated in the textbook, which is required reading on Top Hat, so I spend most of her class time doing that instead.

  I took her in my first semester of college and I remember being really calm in her class despite the anxiety I was going through. You could tell she really cares about her students as individuals. She is more than happy to give you an extension if you need one and attendance isn't mandatory but gives extra credit if you attend.

This is literally the sweetest professor ever! Her assignments are through top hat and straight forward, her study guide questions are exactly on the exam, and you actually learn something despite how easy it is (wow who would of thought). If you participate in class, she notices, and it could help your grade a lot more if needed

She really cares about the class. Tophat (the online textbook) can get a bit much but just manage your time wisely. Most of what was on the study was on the tests, and there's three tests in total no final.
