Disclaimer: I took this course in-person. My comments may not apply to how this is taught online.

This class was respectable but nothing special. If you took this in high school and are repeating it DO NOT underestimate this course! This is NOT your AP Calculus BC high school class! If you do not put in the work you will NOT have a good time!

Prof. Pisano is nothing special. Tests/quizzes are fair and homework is not bad once you get used to WebAssign. She will not screw you over. The only way you get screwed over in this class if if you do not put in the work!

Sometimes struggles to communicate ideas in an easy to understand fashion but is a very nice and approachable person. She will help you with whatever you need just talk to her in office hours. Her sass to the math while she's teaching makes class somewhat funny sometimes.

It's a tough, frustrating course, but not impossible. Professor Pisano definitely knew her stuff and was a great professor. I highly recommend her class. It does require hard work, for sure, but it's not absolutely impossible.

Pro tip - redo the in class worksheets that she gives just before the test, it's good practice.

Calc 2 with Pisano is pretty good. Many people don't take advantage of her office hours which is dumb because she will help you with anything! Her tests are revolved around the worksheets you do in class with your group. Even though the Webassign homework is harder, she never puts questions like those on her exams.

Of all the Calc II teachers, Stacie is the best. Class is hard and frustrating, but she clearly has a great understanding of the material.

I don't understand where everyone is coming from. I just got out of Pisano's class and it was by far the worst course I've taken. The problems in the power points which the class solves together are nowhere near the level of complexity on the homeworks or the tests. At first glance, the test seems somewhat fair, but the rubric is rigorous that a small error can cost you upwards of 80% of the points on a multi-step problem, single handedly tanking your grade. On more than one occasion I saw someone physically brought to tears by the final. Although she may be one of the better teachers in an overall horrid department, this class is still an atrocity and fulfills its reputation as the most failed class on campus.

Not too bad. She doesn't have very much personality when teaching, but Pisano explains things clearly and is fair. The class begins with a powerpoint lecture that has clicker questions and then you do a worksheet with your assigned group. Homework is on WebAssign, there's usually a relatively short pre-homework due for every class and 2-3 longer assignments due on Wednesday nights, sometimes these longer assignments took a while because the problems were more difficult than the ones we did in class. Overall I would say it's a pretty relaxed and fair class as long as you show up, pay attention, and dedicate time to doing homework outside of class & studying before exams.

Professor Pisano is really great! She discusses materials very clearly, and is helpful during office hour. More importantly, she makes Cal II easy to understand. I am taking MATH2310 now and strongly feel that her APMA1110 provides a solid background for Calculus III. Highly Recommend!

Professor Pisano was great! I did not have credit for Calc 1 and had never taken Calc 2 in high school, but I did fine.
Homework: There were short pre-homeworks with tutorial problems that are due on the morning before you learn about that section, and then a couple longer homeworks every week. It was very doable, and she was extremely helpful during office hours.
Classtime: We did group worksheets almost every class after she taught the section, which I liked because it solidified what we were learning.
Overall: Prof. Pisano wants you to succeed in this class, and if you do the work you will.

Had to retake this course, but Pisano kept it real and I had fun in her class. Most of the time I woke up from a nap just before the clicker questions.
