Abstract
Discusses a case study from a distance-learning introductory psychology course. An online activity was developed. The activity was based on recent principles of best practice and learning pedagogy including: fostering a sense of community, encouraging deep level learning, and moving toward mastery of course concepts. Students participated in a formative online task in which they rated New Zealand birds.
