How will we evaluate students who are learning online negatively? Since we can not see all of their faces at the same time, some students might do something else, some might sleep or play games?
Hoi Ht you may think of giving them a test verbally, you can dictate a few questions, then decide which platform they can use to submit the work within a given timeline. That way you will know if a student is serious or not. If you repeat this 3-4 times they will be forced to follow your classes attentively.

Paul: I agree with Fatemeh Khozaei . I ask several questions every day to encourage class discussions. Weekly quizzes are a good tool to use online. I also think there should be some points associated with student participation. From my experience, most students will only do something if there are points involved. Therefore, you should make participation worth a substantial amount of points in your class. Finally, exams are critical. Since the exams will be 'open book' I recommend putting a time limit on each exam.
Student engagement is very vital for online learning.
I found this article is useful and the recommendation is very effective in my class.>>> https://files.eric.ed.gov/fulltext/EJ890707.pdf
That is an interesting, not easy-to-answer question but I would dare to say we need to use synchronic tools to facilitate more learning opportunities and create WhatsApp groups to be ears-open to their needs.
I guess online learning should be short one approximately 1 hour will do then take a break, just put ourselves in the student shoes, we get tired and lose concentration when long hour webinar!
Depending on the tool being used for online teaching, you can do both formative and summative evaluation. I often engage the students by asking questions during the course of instruction. I also give assignments that are submitted and assessed or evaluated online with corresponding corrective feedback where necessary.
You can use multiple choice questions or any other type. The main thing is to play on the time criterion, so that no loss of time is tolerated!
Student assessment has changed in the new millennium. Though there’s something to be said for old-fashioned paper and pencil methods, new technologies are evolving daily to assist teachers with this task. Students today are bombarded with technology, virtually from the day they are born. Not only are they familiar with the technology, they expect to use it in all aspects of their lives, including at school.
The draw of technology is the lure of instant gratification. It is for this reason that old-school ways of assessment, when they are still used, must be engaging for the students, informative for the teacher, and as quick and entertaining as an Instagram post. Here are 8 methods for classroom assessment that are sure to engage students, support student learning, and prove informative for ongoing teacher assessment.
1. Quizzes.
2. Fill-in-the-Blank Cloze Activity.
3. Matching Questions.
4. Forum Post.
5. Peer Evaluation and Review.
6. Poll/Quiz results in real-time.
7. Exit Cards.
8. Online Learning Modules.
Oral exams are the best method. Ask them to switch their cams on and ask orally.
Student engagement in online classes and student evaluation are matters of serious concern. Setting up a discussion forum wherein the teacher can post a few questions to be answered by the students will help better student engagement. This could also be used as a platform for students to interact with the teacher and among the student community and thus promote the co-construction of knowledge.
There are many ways to evaluate students online, including: electronic tests, projects, presentations, etc.

If the student is an adult and had agreed previously to the mandatory use of his camera and microphone within an on-line course, it's okay to demand him to turn this devices on. Otherwise, there must be legal problems to force this behavior, because of childhood protection and constitutional freedom warranties.
