I think this is a first-rate set of reflections on teaching online. It seems to me that they capture what really works online instead of trying to force an offline mode of teaching into an online format. The first two items, small groups and recorded lectures, will be familiar to most. But where online really shines is in things like free writing exercises (because you can share immediately), presenting video feedback (because it's easy to record and save), and using multimedia. But more, it allows you to generate student agency and choice, supporting accessibility, mid-course corrections, and student presentations.
