Where has all the writing gone? Writing composition is one of the most desired skills by employers, yet PK-12 schools and educator preparation programs spend almost no time teaching it. This has led to a decline in writing proficiency over the past decade. This book critically analyzes writing practices and instruction. Section one, Problematizing Writing Instruction in PK-12 Schools: A Critical Examination of Current Practices, includes five chapters addressing challenges faced by PK-12 schools. Section two, Problematizing Writing Instruction in Teacher Preparation: A Critical Examination of Current Practices & Outside the Box Solutions, highlights four chapters, which begin to unearth the challenges of teacher preparation. Section three, Teaching Writing Pedagogy in Coursework, includes seven chapters that interrogate practices in preservice teacher coursework. This text forges a path forward for teacher preparation programs looking to change how writing and writing instruction is addressed.
