Pandemic planning

With a possible case of swine flu in a nearby school, we are making plans today for how we will handle delivery of coursework in the event we will need to close school for up to 7 days. Do any of you have specific plans in place and if so what are you
recommending to your teachers?

We have the advantage of being a 1:1 school, so our students and teachers will all have computers and internet access at home. We also use Blackboard so will have a place for teachers to post information.

Are you recommending any specific software solutions for coursework? Audacity for foreign language or lectures? Voicethread? OneNote shared sessions?

We'd love to hear any ideas you have in your plans.

Thanks - Karen
