Kyle Stedman (@kstedman) reads the bad idea "Secondary-School English Teachers Should Only Be Taught Literature" by Elizabethada A. Wright. It's a chapter first published in Bad Ideas about Writing, which was edited by Cheryl E. Ball (@s2ceball) and Drew M. Loewe (@drewloewe). Don't miss the joke: the author of the chapter is disagreeing with the bad idea stated in the chapter's title.
Keywords: secondary English education programs, rhetoric, AP Central, writing pedagogy, first-year writing
