I had a world history/geography/current events kind of class in college that had an in-person lecture and was also livestreamed and recorded. Lecture hall fit about 1800 people but he also had an unlimited class size "online" section you could sign up for if you didn't get in-person section during early course request. You never actually had to go to class. The professor had to get his own system for taking quizes and handing in assignments since the online learning management system the school used would choke with that many students at once trying to submit things.
Content aside, it was a very interestingly run course. Assignments were at your own pace, you had a large list of the kinds of projects you could turn in for credit. There were quizzes, exams, essay topics, interview topics, and an option for independent projects to get credit. Each kind of project had it's own maximum point value it would be graded out of and the final grade was totally based on how many points your actually earned, not out of how many. Even if you did a shit job on every assignment, as long as you did enough of them, you could get an A. It was a nice way to boost the GPA from just sheer effort rather than actual achievement.
