Currently with COVID, we use ZOOM for live lectures and record then distribute to each student. THis allow reflection and further comprehension on each topic. I hadn't considered a weekly summary/update from students on the progress of the course as we do this verbally, but, considering not all can be in live lecture, this will be a positive way to keep tabs on students and myself as the educator. Non-verbal cues like emoticons haven't been implemented mainly due to course content is already exhaustive, however, it will allow some more reclusive learners to participate without verbal needs.
