No class is the same, no material is the same, and students are not the same. That's why it is important to consider different assessment techniques / tools for have a good and complete overview of a teaching assignment.

A very well structured and informative grading rubric plays an important role when evaluating student's understanding of learning material. It also helps faculty to assess themselves about how effective their teaching skills / methods are.

Online comminutes play an important role in an online setting. This sense of “community” supports student’s learning specially on team / group projects. It also gives a sense of “ownership” to a student’s individual contribution in class.

I believe one of the important aspects of authoring is the communication with the target audience. One disadvantage of online learning is the limited feedback from the audience especially from an engagement perspective. That's one of the reason why the way the study material / class content is prepared needs to be properly managed. This means for the most part, consistency across the board.
