I teach communication, so this informed a lot about alternative comm methods. I would use social networking activities to allow students to practice communicating with different audiences. Perhaps a short video, an infographic, or a digital post designed for a specific audience would allow for a variety of feedback. These types of activities can help make the online class feel less isolated. Practicing what they learn in the class with people who are in or not in the class would open them up to a variety of viewpoints.
