She's an alright professor. While she has good course material, she can be lacking in other areas. For example, she is a little bit bad with technology and sometimes it takes her a couple minutes to get things rolling, or she will go about doing tasks in a roundabout way (i.e. peer reviews through ELMS groups instead of doing it through the assignment). Furthermore, sometimes during class, her explanations or questions can be quite longwinded and not concise, so it's difficult to understand exactly what she's looking for or what she wants. Also, ELMS didn't reflect our grades at the end of class and weren't finalized until a week after they were due which was quite frustrating. :/

Dr. Shelton is brilliant. Please, please, save yourself a headache with some other professor and take a class of hers! She is incredibly accommodating and supportive, which is hard to come by. The class is structured differently which takes a little getting used to, but that's only because she doesn't believe in traditional grading (which is a good thing!). She is also so personable and easy to talk to. Any English major or any non-English major would greatly benefit from her classes.

Very caring professor. Genuinely cares about her students and about teaching. I was always interested in the topics we covered in class. Workload was manageable, but still intellectually challenging. One of the best graduate seminars I've taken at UMD!

I can’t believe more people haven’t reviewed her. She’s seriously awesome. Not a hard professor but you’ll learn a lot from her. She’s also so, so approachable and gives great feedback. The world would be a much better place with more people like Dr. Shelton

Great professor. She is very caring about her students and is always willing to listen to students about changes that should be made in the class. I highly recommend.
