This guide (17 page PDF) should more properly be called 'presenting content from home' or 'lecturing from home'. It is basically a guide to replicating classroom instruction using Zoom supported with paper or whiteboard content. If that's all you want to do, it's a good guide (and really, that's all you were getting from the university professor in those mass-lecture courses anyway). Or if you just want to dump content on a large number of people. But it's hardly a good guide to online learning. Students need a lot more - to be able to converse, create, collaborate, to share (all the stuff Dave Cormier talks about below).
