I went to Stanford for a teaching degree (math, not writing - context for anyone reading this) - they distinguish between content area knowledge (in this case, "how to write") and pedagogical content area knowledge ("how to TEACH how to write").
You know, I have NO idea how Clarion West chooses its instructors. I have knowledge of math pedagogy and I tutored at my college writing center and math center. My publications are a matter of public record but they never asked me what my teaching experience was?? And thinking back, I wish they had, because it's so relevant!!
