Unless you are a discrete math wiz, it's necessary to attend class. The online book is free. HW weekly but fairly easy. "Sage on the stage" style teaching and quick delivery.

Comment:

Prof. Grasse is a very old school lecturer. There's not a lot of interaction with the students, but his lectures are good. His organization is exceptional. Always grades assignments/tests quickly, posts previous exams very similar to those given, and posts solutions to everything after graded -- HW/Test/practice tests! Oh yeah, and a free OS book.

Comment:

Professor Grasse is clearly intelligent and knowledgeable about calculus, but he does not teach well, and his tests are very hard. Avoid his class if you can.

Comment:

Grasse's teaching method: Here's a pair of scissors. I'm going to teach you how to mow a 5 acre yard with them. Several mows later, here's how to use a riding mower. After a year of mowing with a riding mower, he expects us to mow with scissors once again.

Comment:

500596 points in the class are JUST exams. If you fail the exams, you fail the class. Exams are way too long for 50ish minutes and he LOVES to take off points for stupid stuff. If you can get a better professor for calc 1, Id advise doing it. Class with this man is very stressful. The only positive is that he curves each exam, to average a C.

Comment:

500596 points available were on tests, which are too long for the 55 minute window he gives to complete them. If you don't test well, you've got no shot in his class. Nice guy, but his lectures consist of him droning on for 48 coma-inducing minutes. No chance I'd take him again if I could help it.

Comment:

I didn't do well in this course, but because I didn't put in the necessary effort, not because of the professor. Dr. Grasse was actually really nice and helpful and was always willing to give an earnest student the benefit of the doubt. The subject was difficult, but his lectures were as clear as possible. Go to office hours and you'll do well.

Comment:

Professor Grasse is an excellent professor that truly understands the material. Although his exams are pretty long, he gives out sample exams that are almost identical to the real one. He curves every test to make the class average a 70. I would recommend him to anyone needing to take this course.

Comment:

EXCELLENT professor! He explained concepts well and gave clear, thorough examples. The only downside is that he would tend to move quickly and never allow time for questions during lecture, so use the discussion section to your advantage. The exams were rather easy and identical to sample exams but very LONG. He'll curve the grades when necessary.

Very well organized. Great lecture style. Tests tend to be a little long and not too easy, but fair. Dr. Grasse expects you to put in the time and effort necessary to know your stuff. Great teacher!!!

Very, very organized and clear. Coming to class and taking notes are a must, and DO YOUR HOMEWORK. His tests are hard and long, so study so you can have a chance of finishing and doing well (and ruining the curve for the rest of the class =p ).

Very organized. One of the best math professors. Take his class if you want to learn math! But be prepared if end up with a B or C. He has a high standard and expectation of students.

Very organized with the class. Clear and detailed explanations. One of the best mathematics professors I've had yet. Odd sense of humor though... tends to come with that area of study I suppose.
