Reviews of professor Maduranga Dassanayake

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Dr. D is one of the best professors I've met here at UGA, distinguished not only for his effective teaching but also for being one of the kindest and most caring individuals on campus. His lectures are enjoyable, and he is great at explaining complex concepts using easy examples. If you get a chance, I highly recommend taking his class!

Dr. D is so nice! He is always willing to help, but most of the time you won't need help because of how easy his class is. If you have taken AP Statistics, you can easily make an A with barely any effort. He allows you to create a "cheat sheet" for tests, and the rest of the assignments are primarily on WebAssign. Attendance is optional.

Dr. D is one of the best professors at UGA. He is personable and understanding. Don't need any background in stats to do well in the course. Course is made up of chapter homework on WebAssign, 3 tests, case studies, and an optional final. Take him if you can!! Guaranteed A in the course and a great person.

Pretty easy professor to take over the summer. Nothing crazy, had 3 tests, 12 HW assignments, 12 quizzes. Quizzes have 3 attempts each, HW questions have 4 attempts each. Either you take the final to replace part of a test grade or he averages your 3 test grades as a score. Lots of study material to help you get an A, should be a breeze.

Dr. D has made this course extremely interesting and engaging, allowing me to develop a strong interest in the field of data science. He always finds time to meet and give students a chance for follow-up questions, and he has been my favorite teacher at UGA this year. I appreciate all the effort you make, and I truly value you as a teacher!

Dr. Dassanayake was great. Very organzied teacher with great online lecture videos for BUSN3000E. I got unlucky and ended with a 92.50% so got the A- ... However, great class if you have taken stat and all you have to learn is how to use JMP for the tests.

Took the summer online version of BUSN 3000 and can't recommend him enough. Unlimited attempts on quizzes, optional final, and 3 open note unit tests. He posts lectures with problem examples on eLC. He made this class as easy as possible. Great teacher!

Dr. D deserved praise for his kindness and care for his students. I had truly never had such a kind human teach me a class before, and his respect for me made me try to give everything back to him throughout assignments throughout the semester. He was truly one of a kind, and I was so thankful I got to take him.
