description: Charlotte Perkins Gilman's « The Yellow Wall-paper is one of the most frequently taught short stories in secondary and college classrooms around the world. What is especially unusual about the text is the large variety of academic contexts in which the story is included. The Pedagogical Wallpaper provides educators, students, and researchers with accessible and practical approaches to the story, with an emphasis on the text as a tool for teaching. The classroom contexts address women's studies, freshman composition, literary theory, philosophy, and genre studies. In addition, the text details how to make use of a MOO space to allow students to engage directly with Gilman's story through the use of computer mediation.
