How English Teachers Get Taught offers one of the first systematic analyses of the ways in which preservice English teachers learn their craft. Smagorinsky and Whiting examine how college professors across the country teach undergraduate secondary methods courses. The book explores several issues relevant to the teaching of methods courses: the five general approaches that structure the experiences of preservice teachers; the range of activities and assessments that students are involved in; and the major theoretical positions articulated through the course readings.
