This case study of a distance education course in children's literature focuses on the creation of an interpretive community and the importance of that community in online learning. It also refines Michael G. Moore's work on transactional distance to include the concept of a faculty member's "restrained presence" in an effort to facilitate students' personal responsibility for their own learning and for community building in an online learning environment.
