I've taken Georgia Tech's OMSCS program. What really sets this apart is the active feedback on assignments / course interaction from Professors and TAs in Piazza.

Current online courses have really watered down content and zero/terrible ways of evaluating the material.

Things that I like too see in an online course:

- Keep assignments on a regular basis (on par with your campus schedule). Quizzes are great to keep them engaged but do not use them to replace regular assignments.

- Design them to be auto-graded as much as possible. Bonus points if there was some way the students can evaluate their solution locally.

- Something like Piazza/Forum setup to answer student questions and have an appropriate number of TAs.

- Post all the resources used in the videos to be accessible for later reference (slides and links).

If you're recording content for future offerings, ensure that the content is consistently updated to stay relevant.
