Rhetoric's Mechanics: Retooling the Equipment of Writing Production
Rice, Jenny Edbauer
College Composition and Communication, v60 n2 p366-387 Dec 2008
Teaching rhetorical production in a digital age calls for us to rethink our discipline's current distaste for writing mechanics.

(Contains 3 figures and 11 notes.)
