Case in point: My university uses moodle as a learning platform and encourages lecturers to set weekly quizzes, feedback surveys, embedded videos, links to external resources, etc. My course page just has a link to the lecture notes pdf, weekly exercises, and a help forum. I got called out by colleagues for maybe not giving students a rich enough "learning experience". But talking to students they are very grateful that I keep it simple and don't overload them with tons of stuff every week like their other courses.
