Comment:
WORST instructor I've taken so far. never helps with students that need help and will not help students that she thinks are being rude to her. we are never given any ideas on what to study for our tests and treats people as if they are slow if they tell her that they don't know a specific material. sets you up for failure.

Comment:
Terrible at giving information on how to debug or make codes from word problems. When students ask her for help with understanding the material, she states "you know it" and does nothing to help us succeed. She gives no idea on what specific things to study on the test and we're is stuck rereading chapters but still not understanding anything.

Comment:
Mary is tough. She knows the material but doesn't spoon feed you and gets a kick out of making you figure it out. The assignments/tests are usually convoluted and you seem to spend more time thinking about what mind set she was in when she created the test/assignment than what the actual answer should be. Get ready for harsh grading.

I am a new-traditional student with experience in information technology. This course with its emphasis on how to develop the logical problem solving and thinking skills is tailor-made to develop real world skills. Professor Rasley sets expectations for standards that will help you in a job environment. IF YOU NEED HELP, ASK she is available.

Comment:
Mary Rasley is such a terrible professor that three years after graduation I decided it was worth the effort to go back and tell people how terrible she is. She covers the trifecta of (1) not understanding her own material, (2) being unwilling to help her students, and (3) grading sporadically and harshly. Avoid her at ANY cost.

Comment:
Teacher, not a professor. Huge difference. She taught us how to make a welcome screen in UnrealEngine4 and gave a link for youtube. She expects you to make a huge progress on your own not really knowing how to create games or what even game programming really is. Sweetheart person - Bad teacher. Danger for students' futures and knowledge span.2/10

Comment:
If given the option, never take s class she is "teaching." I had a group that tried asking for assistance with a problem we had, and basically ignored our group for 30 min., Til another group pointed us out. She will not care for the students trying to understand, only the ones that already do. Either you teach yourself, or find a tutor.

Comment:
Great teacher, works to make sure everyone understands the material, but this means lectures end up talking about the same thing over and over. The assignments aren't too bad, taking about an hour or two each max, and there was one or two a week. Tests were more vocab based than material based. Overall, I would take class with her again.

Comment:
She is so rude some times, like other people said, do not try and correct her. You will piss her off! She is very nice and a very good person, but she tends to explains things for tooooo long and it gets very boring and you have no clue what she's talking about.

If you want to actually work in industry and be able to demonstrate what you Mary is the best, bar none. I think Mary actually could easily teach at a Lehigh, Bucknell or Drexel and challenge her students. We are lucky to have her.

She can become bias very fast; it is her way or the highway. Other than that, the workload is huge and if one thing is off she will practically fail you for it on the assignment. The highest possible grade anyone can get is a 95%

This was my first online class and she made it a wonderful experience! I was lost and scared at first that I was going to screw things up, but she was very clear and when you asked her questions she got back to you. And the few mistakes or problems I did have she was very forgiving and worked with me to get through them. Highly recommended

Took 7-week class online. Wrote 2 papers & put together a package with my group to compare & present a small business network. Was a lot of work but if you like busy work, CIS105 7-week, online class for you. In the long run, you learn something.

Worst teacher I have ever had!!! Dont get on her bad side, cause she is very bias. Dont try to correct her in anyway, and this will probably be taken down cause she checks this site and deletes her bad comments.

She is boring and difficult to understand. She mostly talks about everything except the subject she is teaching. If you can learn everything by reading the text books on your own, then pick her classes.

Comment:
I have taken Mary for many courses, and have never had a professor that I learned more from. Her willingness to go off on a tangent and hands-on work and demonstrations makes it easier to learn the material. She is also willing to go the extra mile both in and out of class, and is definitely a professor who is dedicated to her students.

A very difficult class. She knows her material, however, the class lectures are not interesting and it̢۪s hard for her to convey the topic to the class. The labs are difficult but interesting. The tests are difficult and often seem to cover material not
