Description

Sledd, James. “And They Write Innumerable Books.”_The Writing Instructor_ 2.2 (1983): 69-79.

Sledd argues that current fads among composition studies scholars--such as process pedagogy and transformational grammar--do not prepare people to become writing teachers and are therefore just a way for composition scholars to gain scholarly credentials.
